Forever

We're living in a world of infinite ends
where there is no finality to termination
where flowers wilt
rivers run dry
promises are broken
but baby, you change the rhythm
you dance on your own
and you are my forever (and ever)
you are my forever.

The sun is doomed to set
pictures are bound to fade
memories are always lost
and every fragment of every day
cannot be saved in any part of me
but you, baby, are the solidarity of life
you keep my heart spinnin'
you are my forever (and ever)
you are my forever.

Snowflakes melt
babies grow old
cotton candy disintigrates on the tongue
whose tastebuds fade with age.
The candle wick is lost in the wax
oxygen consumed by the fire
and even if love will someday fade
even if love cannot stand the test of time
baby, you are my forever
you can be my forever
could you be my forever?
because, baby... baby...
we could be forever.
