We thought we had it all   We thought we'd go unscathed   We thought our love   Would border on infinity      We thought that we were free   The world would disappear   We left ourselves wide open   And we had no fear      But forever came and went   Forever stumbled through   Forever had poor sense of time   And made a mess of me and you      Forever had us fooled   We fell for it again   And now time is standing still   Forever      Lying next to you   But you're already gone   And too much has been said   And it can't be undone      It's so hard to comprehend   When ashes fade to dust   I touch your water   And the iron turns to rust      So forever came and went   Forever stumbled through   Forever had poor sense of time   And made a mess of me and you      Forever had us fooled   We fell for it again   And now time is standing still   Forever came and went      We thought it had it all   We thought we'd go unscathed   We thought our love   Would border on infinity      But forever was a shame   It stole a little piece of us   To live up to it's name   Was really just too much      And forever came and went   Forever stumbled through   Forever had poor sense of time   And made a mess of me and you      Forever came and went   Forever stumbled through   Forever had poor sense of time   And made a mess of me and you      Forever had us fooled   We fell for it again   And now time is standing still   Forever came and went      (Forever, forever, forever)   Oh, I thought we had it all   (Forever, forever, forever)   Oh, oh, oh      I thought we had it all   (Forever, forever)   Every day 'til the end   (Forever)   You and me, oh, oh   (Forever, forever, forever)
