Forever

Friends

It's a funny word

Say it more than once

Still won't be heard

Friends

You might not know it

But that's what we were

That's what we could have been

Forever don't mean a thing

What did forever bring?

Enough, enough, enough of that awful sting

Forgot to read through the lines

Forgot to wait for time

To let me in, let me out, let me climb

Away…

You,

You're funny too,

See how I'm laughing—

Ha, ha, now let me know who you are

You,

I told you never,

I said forever

Once…once upon a time.

Forever don't mean a thing

What did forever bring?

Enough, enough, enough of that awful sting

Forgot to read through the lines

Forgot to wait for time

To let me in, let me out, let me climb

Away…

You thought I wouldn't realize

The deceit in front of my eyes

Didn't think I'd recognize

The betrayal when I saw it.

I've been through one,

I can do it again—

But like the first, it's still called pain

And when it's too much strain

It starts to rain…

Forever.

Forever don't mean a thing

What did forever bring?

Enough, enough, enough of that awful sting

Forgot to read through the lines

Forgot to wait for time

To let me in, let me out, let me climb

Away…
