There's no stronger wind
Than the one that blows down a lonesome railroad line
No prettier sight than looking back
On a town you left behind
There's nothing that's as real
As this love that's in my mind

Close your eyes
I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes
I'll be here for a while

There's lots of things along the road
I'd surely like to see
I'd like to lean into the wind
And tell myself I'm free
But your softest whisper's loudеr
Than the highway's call to me

Close your еyes
I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes
I'll be here for a while

All the mountains and the rivers
And the valleys can't compare
To your bluely dancing eyes
And your yellow, shining hair
I could never hit the open road
And leave you lying there
Close your eyes
I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes
I'll be here for a while

Oh, lay your head back easy, love
Close your crying eyes
I'll be laying here beside you
When the sun comes on the rise
I'll stay as long as the cuckoo wails
And the lonesome blue jay cries

Close your eyes
I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes
I'll be here for a while

Close your eyes
I'll be here in the morning
Close your eyes
I'll be here for a while

For a while
Close your eyes
