Forever (Doesn’t Quite Seem Long Enough)

Lyrics

[Intro] Forever doesn't quite seem long enough [Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] What if you get sick and you leave me when you're 38 What if I get reckless driving on the interstate Ooh, forever doesn't quite seem long еnough I wish I had known you when we werе in second grade Draw you stupid pictures, eat lunch with you every day Ooh, forever doesn't quite seem long enough [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] What if you get sick and you leave me when you're 38 What if I get reckless driving on the interstate Ooh, 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 Ooh, forever doesn't quite seem long enough [Bridge] Life's a short bittersweet mystery And love is such a precious fragile thing [Chorus] So what if you get sick and you leave me when you're 38 What if I get reckless driving on the interstate Ooh, 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 Ooh, forever doesn't quite seem long enough [Outro] Forever doesn't quite seem long enough
