Forever's Too Long


Father to all, friend to none
Friend to none, that is, save one
Friend to the one who forgets
You never said that you wouldn't forget

It's best if perhaps we stayed away
And any harbored lust was kept at bay
At least an arms length away
On second thought why don't you stay

Everything feels so right at the time
It's only when we look back that we find
It's never as simple as we hoped it would be
Forever's Too Long for love never to be

Words are as hollow as blood is thick
As the thread of promise ravels quick
I suppose I could stay behind
And cling to a truth that you want me to find

Everything feels so right at the time
It's only when we look back that we find
It's never as simple as we hoped it would be
Forever's Too Long for love never to be
