There’s a Long, Long Trail Lyrics by John McCormack

Oh! It’s A Lovely War (Vol 2)

0

[Verse 1]
Nights are growing very lonely
Days are very long;
I'm a-growing weary only
List'ning for your song
Old remembrances are thronging
Thro' my memory
Till it seems the world is full of dreams
Just to call you back to me
[Chorus]
There's a long, long trail a-winding
Into the land of my dreams
Where the nightingales are singing
And a white moon beams
There's a long, long night of waiting
Until my dreams all come true;
Till the day when I'll be going down
That long, long trail with you
[Verse 2]
All night long I hear you calling
Calling sweet and low;
Seem to hear your footsteps falling
Ev'ry where I go
Tho' the road between us stretches
Many a weary mile
I forget that you're not with me yet
When I think I see you smile
[Chorus]
There's a long, long trail a-winding
Into the land of my dreams
Where the nightingales are singing
And a white moon beams
There's a long, long night of waiting
Until my dreams all come true;
Till the day when I'll be going down
That long, long trail with you
