Forever

(album: My Arms Are Open - 2020)

Blow out the candles
Let's go to bed
Drift off to sleep
I'm still convinced you're a dream

Because we started off on shaky ground
When you swept the floor from under my feet

We cause trouble
Wherever we go
I've never been good
At doing what I am told

But how could I ever turn away from you?
With your ocean eyes and a voice that paints me gold

No one's seen or heard a thing
I know who I'd rather be with
This is the happiest
That I've ever been

And you know I
Change my style like the weather
But you love every version of me
And it's crazy how time just unwinds
When we're together

So hold me tight
Say no words
We both know
It's forever

You give me love
When I've got nothing
And you give me shelter
When I bring down the rain

We've got the wolves at our door
Trying to tear us apart
But we shine so bright
That in our light they fade

We hole up in our home
When there's nowhere we'd rather go
This is the happiest
That I've ever known

And you know I
Change my style like the weather
But you love every version of me
And it's crazy how time just unwinds
When we're together

So hold me tight
Say no words
We've found a love to cross the ages
So hold me close
Say no more
We both know
It's forever

We don't always get along
I can't admit when I'm wrong
And we've got tempers like fireworks
But I'm not myself when I'm alone
You are the one that I call home
And when it comes to our song
We both know the words

And you know I
Change my style like the weather
But you love every version of me
And it's crazy how time just unwinds
When we're together

So hold me tight
Say no words
We both know
It's forever
