Forever Now Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Taking her seat at the bar, she don't talk to anyone
Plane leaving soon for afar, where she don't know anyone
She thinks of her precious time
There's no-one she leaves behind who could change her mind
[Pre-Chorus]
Is this the way it's gonna be forever
Is this the way it's gonna be forever
Is this the way it's gonna be forever now
[Chorus]
Take a whole life's loneliness
Wrap it up in some tenderness
Send it off to some emptiness
With all my love
It's only you and me
There'll be nothing we need to see
Only one thing can set you free
Is all my love
[Verse 2]
Making his way down the stairs, he can't help but looking back
Thinks of the things that they shared, there'll be no more turning back
He thinks of the day they met
The words that she said of love he just can't forget
Taking her seat at the bar, she don't talk to anyone
Plane leaving soon for afar, where she don't know anyone
She thinks of her precious time
There's no-one she leaves behind who could change her mind
[Pre-Chorus]
Is this the way it's gonna be forever
Is this the way it's gonna be forever
Is this the way it's gonna be forever now
[Chorus]
Take a whole life's loneliness
Wrap it up in some tenderness
Send it off to some emptiness
With all my love
It's only you and me
There'll be nothing we need to see
Only one thing can set you free
Is all my love
[Verse 2]
Making his way down the stairs, he can't help but looking back
Thinks of the things that they shared, there'll be no more turning back
He thinks of the day they met
The words that she said of love he just can't forget
[Pre-Chorus]
It's just the way they wanna be forever
It's just the way they wanna be forever
Tell me it will always be forever now
[Chorus]
Take a whole life's loneliness
Wrap it up in some tenderness
Send it off to some emptiness
With all my love
It's only you and me
There'll be nothing we need to see
Only one thing can set you free
Is all my love
[Outro]
It's only you and me
There'll be nothing we need to see
Only one thing can set you free
Is all our love
Only one thing can set you free
Is all our love, oh yeah, oh yeah
It's just the way they wanna be forever
It's just the way they wanna be forever
Tell me it will always be forever now
[Chorus]
Take a whole life's loneliness
Wrap it up in some tenderness
Send it off to some emptiness
With all my love
It's only you and me
There'll be nothing we need to see
Only one thing can set you free
Is all my love
[Outro]
It's only you and me
There'll be nothing we need to see
Only one thing can set you free
Is all our love
Only one thing can set you free
Is all our love, oh yeah, oh yeah
