Emmylou Harris - When I Was Yours lyrics

(emmylou harris/paul kennerley) In a lonely room waiting for the night to fall I hear your voice in every whip-poor-will that calls And it takes me back to a better place and a sweeter time When i was yours and you were mine As the shadows fall and the light grows dim i see your face I close my eyes and feel the warmth of your embrace as i long for you And for all those days when hearts entwined When i was yours and you were mine When i was yours and you were mine When i was yours and you were mine A truer love in caroline Ever waltzed across these hills and danced beneath the stars Life was sweeter than the flowers blooming on the vine When i was yours and you were mine So i lay my head On a pillow soft and stained with tears I cry for you through all the long and lonely years But when i dream till the morning sun comes to shine Then i'll be yours and you'll be mine Yes i will go back to a better place and a sweeter time When i was yours and you were mine
