Till I Gain Control Again
Willie Nelson feat. Emmylou Harris Lyrics

Just like the sun over the mountain top
Similar to the steadfastness of the sunrise over the mountains, I vow to always return to you.

You know I'll always come again
I assure you that I will always return, and never leave you without warning.

You know I love to spend my morning time
Basking in the morning sunlight with you, is one of my favorite things to do.

Like sunlight dancing on your skin
The way the sunlight grazes your skin reminds me of how delicate and precious our love is.

I've never gone so wrong as to telling lies to you
My love for you is so pure that I have never felt the need to be dishonest with you.

What you've seen is what I've been
You have had the privilege of seeing me as nobody else has, as my true self.

There is nothing I could hide from you
I am so open with you that there is nothing I could ever conceal.

You see me better than I can
You know me better than I know myself.

Out on the road that lies before me now
As I travel down the path of life,

There are some turns where I will spin
There are some twists and turns that I will face and cause me confusion.

I only hope that you can hold me now
At times when I feel lost, I hope you will be my anchor and guide me back to steady ground.

Till I can gain control again
Until I gather the strength to take back control of my life again.

Like a lighthouse you must stand alone
Just like how a lighthouse serves as a symbol of hope and guidance for a lost sailor, you too must be strong and independent.

Landmark the sailor's journeys end
You serve as a beacon of support and an endpoint of stability for me.

No matter what sea I've have been sailing on
Regardless of the obstacles I may face on my journey,

I'll always roll this way again
I know deep down that I will always find my way back to you.
