The mist of the morning in this strange town,
lifted slowly with the sun,
refracted the rays in a thousand ways,
a new day just begun.
And it crowded against my window sill,
still sweet with the morning dew.
If only you knew,
how much i think of you.
Into the van and down the road,
along the highway fast.
with this band i ride through the countryside,
the seasons slidin' past.
I spy a humble homestead there,
with a garden and a river view.
If only you knew,
how much i think of you.
By a stream of running water,
i heard you laugh.
i closed my eyes for an hour and a half,
and tried to make you appear.
i swear in the beauty of the setting sun,
you were here.
an old troubador on the street that night,
plays for our passin' change.
On a fiddle in g, a melody,
mysterious and strange.
he learned on a green distant mountain top,
a wedding waltz,
so sweet and true.
If only you knew,
how much i think of you.
If only you knew,
how much i think of you.
