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
