Sometimes in middle of the night, I reach for you in my dreams
Then I lay awake till the mornin' light, tired of rememberin'
River runs wide here the river runs deep, I'd give that river my soul
To keep if I could only finally sleep awhile

That'll be me howlin' in the wind
Every time I come across your tracks again
Tell me how long has it been since I've been free
If you see a fire on the mountain side
All around the places I used to hide
That'll be me, that'll be me

You and I, we're gypsy born under the same old sign
If my tears for you are a thunderstorm, my love is the sweet sunshine
You can't run far enough to ever quite outrun my love
I know who you're thinkin' of tonight

That'll be me walkin' through your mind
Talkin' to your heart most all the time
Stirrin' up memories of mine like a gentle breeze
If you hear somebody singin' you this song
Like they could sing it to you all night long
That'll be me, that'll be me

That'll be me howlin' in the wind
Every time I come across your tracks again
Tell me how long has it been since I've been free
If you hear somebody singin' you this song
Like they could sing it to you all night long
That'll be me, that'll be me, that'll be me, that'll be me
