Lyrics:

(Emmylou Harrispaul 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 Ill Be Yours And Youll Be Mine.

yes, I Will Go Back To A Better Place And A Sweeter Time
when I Was Yours And You Were Mine...
