If You Were to Wake Up
Lyle Lovett · Anthology, Vol. 1: Cowboy Man [MCA] [2001]
If you were to wake up and I were beside you
Would you gently smile dear and whisper my name
And would you remember the way that I held you
And would you want me to hold you again.
Time reaches to you just like a willow
That bends to the water and clings to the shore
And there was a time, dear, that once you did love me
And there was a time you loved me no more.
Rain on your window, light on your pillow
The way you lie sleeping is it like before
For there was a time, dear, that once you did love me
And there was a time you loved me no more...
Would you gently smile dear and whisper my name
And would you remember the way that I held you
And would you want me to hold you again.
Time reaches to you just like a willow
That bends to the water and clings to the shore
And there was a time, dear, that once you did love me
And there was a time you loved me no more.
Rain on your window, light on your pillow
The way you lie sleeping is it like before
For there was a time, dear, that once you did love me
And there was a time you loved me no more...
