Sunlight is gone, a wind stirs the willow
Whippoorwills call from high on the hill
Deep shadows fall as I wait for you by the window
Soon you’ll be here, drawing me near to you again
These Tennessee nights roll on like a river
So gentle and slow with you by my side
These Tennessee nights will go on forever
‘Cause here in my heart you’ll always be mine
I hear the wind whisper low through the hollow
Calling my name the way you did then
I close my eyes and I lay my head on the pillow
Soon you’ll be here in peaceful dreams with me again
These Tennessee nights roll on like a river
So gentle and slow with you by my side
These Tennessee nights will go on forever
‘Cause here in my heart you’ll always be mine
Here in my heart you’ll always be mine

I have been listening to this song.. for the past 20 years.. was it a hit? who was the singer? I did not know actually for a long time.. How can an American country song, based on Tennessee, wrench the heart of a guy in India (Asia)? Guess it is the universality of the song.. the way the singer sings, as if all her emotions are flowing forth.. of dead dreams and lost loves. I don't know anything about Pam Tillis.. this song is of the pre-internet era. But I really love this song.. and hope that Pam has sung many other songs like this... keep it up dear.. my best wishes..
