Tomorrow is such a long time


If today were not an endless highway
If tonight were not a crooked trail
If tomorrow weren't such a long time
Then lonesome would mean nothing to me at all

And only if my own true love were waiting for me
And if I could hear her heart softly pounding
If only she was lying by me
Then I'd lie in my bed once again

I can't see my reflection in the water
Can't speak the sounds that show no pain
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps
Can't remember the sound of my own name

And only if my own true love were waiting for me
And if I could hear he heart softly pounding
If only she was lying by me
Then I'd lie in my bed once again

There's beauty in the silver, singing river
There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky
None of these and nothing else can touch the beauty
That I remember in my true love's eyes

And only if my own true love were waiting for me
And if I could hear he heart softly pounding
If only she was lying by me
And she could lie in my bed once again

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics TOMORROW IS SUCH A LONG TIME of NICK DRAKE is also present in the album Tanworth-in-arden (1968)

Biografia

Nicholas Rodney Drake, known as Nick Drake, was an English singer-songwriter and guitarist born in 1948. His music, characterized by melancholic melodies and introspective lyrics, primarily falls into the folk-rock genre. Drake released three studio albums during his short career: *Five Leaves Left* (1969), *Bryter Layter* (1970) and *Pink Moon* (1972). Despite an initial lack of commercial success, his work was rediscovered in the 1980s, becoming a cult object among fans of indie and folk music. Drake is remembered for his poetic sensibility, refined guitar technique, and the introverted atmosphere that permeates his songs. Some of his most representative tracks are *Pink Moon*, *Northern Sky* and *Cello Song*. His life was marked by deep melancholy and a sense of alienation, which is reflected in his music. Drake died in 1974 at the age of 26 from an accidental overdose of barbiturates.
