Jerry Jeff Walker - I'll Be Here In The Morning lyrics

Townes Van Zandt

There's no stronger wind than the one that blows

Down a lonesome railroad line

There's a prettier sight than looking back

On the town you left behind,

Nothing is as real as a love that's in your mind

Chorus:

Close your eyes, I'll be here in the morning

Close your eyes, I'll be here for a while

And the rivers and the mountains, and the valleys can't compare

With your blue-lit, flashing, dancing eyes

And your yellow shining hair

I'd never hit that open road, and leave you lying there

Chorus

Lay your head back easy easy, love, and dry your crying eyes

I'll be here in the morning when the sun is on the rise

I'll stay as long as the cuckoo wails

And the lonesome blue jay cries

Chorus

First Verse
