Forever Is A Long Time
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
"Today I read in a book that some are meant to live forever
There's also a nightmare where our dying has no end
If I let my will surrender and my flesh be crucified
In his name my sins will be sublime
Forever is a long long time
It's said love is a gift that's given if we're true believers
Just make your body and your soul his receivers
In this world those golden rules
May seem like they're made for fools
Puppets on a string that blessing can bring
Forever is a long long time
Forever is a long long time
But now the wine has turned sour after all these years offighting
So many wars but still his kingdom is not striking
Pray for your enemy
And love without agony
Always ready for day to come
Forever is a long long time
Forever is a long time
"
