Forever

I don't use a word like forever, I'm working with time

If I'm lucky, I'll grow old

And if I'm blessed, have a daughter

If I'm wise, she'll have a heart and eyes like yours

There's not enough time to love you right

But I will find you life after life

Surely I've loved you many times before

Surely I was born to love you more

Ignore the falling grains of sand

You have my whole life, my man

And in the time that I have my breath

How can I serve you best?

Surely I saw leaves will fall

Any woman worth her salt

Would risk or give anything at all

To know a love like this

I didn't see you standing there

Sometimes time ain't fair

But oh my love, oh my soul

Come in, come here

Yeah, I don't use a word like forever

A word ain't enough

Deeper than darkness, longer than light

Bolder than blood

See that flame dancing

Flicker in the wind

Does she know another fire somewhere

Also burns and dims?
