If I Could See Your Face Again

[Verse 1]

Well, I lived here all my life

Don't know why I'm still surprised

That the sunset comes so early to this valley

And if I'm not on my toes

The twilight comes and goes

And I'm all alone with darkness all around me

[Verse 2]

If I could see your face again

Black with coal until your grin

Cuts like sunshine through the shadow of the mountain

I'd drop everything and run

Like I know I shoulda done

Every time you come home to me in the evenin'

[Bridge 1]

Tonight's just like the night before

Ain't nobody walking through that door

[Verse 3]

If I could touch you one more time

Just to hold your hand in mine

I'd never let it go again I promise

Maybe we could find a town

Dreams aren't buried underground

And not so many ghosts around to haunt us

[Bridge 2]

And every breath is not a prayer

Until I turn around and find you there

[Verse 4]

If I could see your face again

And I knew what I know then

I wouldn't make you work so hard to win me

I'd surrender to your arms

Wrapped around me safe and warm

'Cause I knew you were the one from the beginning

[Outro]

And I'd give almost anything

If I could only see your face again
