Forever
Wide open eyes in the night,
why aren’t you sleeping?
Your face is lit from the light,
why aren’t you sleeping?
Can I see those pretty eyes,
can you look at me?
Can I see past those lies,
can you look at me?
Darling,
why aren’t you sleeping?
Can’t you see me?
Please stop your weeping,
Can’t you see me?
Can I hug you real tight,
can you feel me?
Can we never fight,
can you feel me?
Can I taste the coffee on your lips,
do you still drink it before bed?
I can remember those little sips,
do you still drink it before bed?
You haven’t seen me in months,
but I have yet to leave.
You haven’t held me in months,
but I have yet to leave.
Darling,
can’t I have one last night,
why can’t we be forever?
The light is so bright,
why can’t we be forever?
Please,
why are you fading away,
can’t I stay with you?
Why is everything lit up like day,
can’t I stay with you?
Your beautiful face,
I want to see it again.
Your beautiful eyes,
I want to see them again.
Darling,
why can’t I stay,
I want to be forever.
Why do I have to be away,
I want to be forever.
