We thought we had it all
We thought we'd go unscathed
We thought our love would border on infinity
We thought that we were free
The world would disappear
We left ourselves wide open and we had no fear
But forever came and
went Forever stumbled through
Forever had poor sense of time and made a mess of me and you
Forever had us fooled
We fell for it again
Now time is standing still Forever lying next to you
But you're already gone
And too much has been said
And it can't be undone
It's so hard to comprehend
When ashes fade to dust A touch of water
and the iron turns to rust
So forever came and went Forever stumbled through
Forever had poor sense of time and made a mess of me and you
Forever had us fooled We fell for it again
And now time is standing still Forever came and went
We thought we had it all
We thought we'd go unscathed
We thought our love would border on
infinity But forever was a shame
It stole a little piece of us
To live up to its name was really just too
much
And forever came and went
Forever stumbled through
Forever had poor sense of time
and made a mess of me and you
Forever came and went Forever stumbled through
