(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
