Songtext von Forever (Doesn't Quite Seem Long Enough)

Forever doesn't quite seem long enough When I was 5 years old I couldn't imagine being 12 When I was in high school 40 meant that you were dead Maybe everybody feels this way when they start getting older But I love you so much I'm scared you won't always be here What if you get sick and you leave me when you're 38 What if I get reckless driving on the interstate Ohhh forever doesn't quite seem long enough I wish I had known you when we were in second grade Draw you stupid pictures, eat lunch with you every day Ohhh forever doesn't quite seem long enough The first week that I met you I saw the sunrise every night I think I knew it then I always want to be by your side Now every time I leave Doesn't matter where I'm going it doesn't feel like I need to go when I could be with you at home What if you get sick and you leave me when you're 38 What if I get reckless driving on the interstate Ohhh forever doesn't quite seem long enough I wish I had known you when we were in second grade I'd have drawn you pictures, eat lunch with you every day Ohhh forever doesn't quite seem long enough Life's a short bittersweet mystery And love is such a precious fragile thing So what if you get sick and you leave me when you're 38 What if I get reckless driving on the interstate Ohhh forever doesn't quite seem long enough I wish I had known you when we were in second grade I'd have drawn you pictures, eat lunch with you every day Ohhh forever doesn't quite seem long enough Forever doesn't quite seem long enough
