When Forever Is So Long

First time, I felt stardust in my eyes

I knew, that I missed out on the prize

Of love

But I shut out love, from my life

Regrets, came out slowly

Time passed, and I was so lonely

But now, I'm searching for love

I can afford a ring

But there's no one to honour it

Ain't got no wings

But I'll take you to places you've dreamed of

Will you still be my bride

When the ceremony ends?

When the spring fades away

And the birds stop to sing

Will you come to my warmth

When the storms finally end?

Do you dream of forever

Even when the years feel so long?

First time, I felt the electricity

Your touch, your kiss, that's felicity

Oh love

But now, I've reopened the door

Memories, been comin' out lately

Rememberin, things but vaguely

Yeah now, I feel it more and more

I grew a rose

But there's no one here to smell it

I'd buy you clothes

And a mansion, just to fill it

Well I suppose

I'd call you names a bee can't spill it

Will you still be my bride

When the ceremony ends?

When the spring fades away

And the birds stop to sing

Will you come to my warmth

When the storms finally end?

Do you dream of forever

Even when the years feel so long?

I've tried, tried, tried and I've cried, cried, cried

But in the end it all fades, fates ain't that tied, tied, tied

Can we, oh can we

Have a love so deep that it won't subside?

Cause the river won't always teem with fish

And there ain't a well that I could ask for a wish

Oh woah, woah

I want this love

I can afford a ring

But there's no one to honour it

No, no

Ain't got no wings

But I'll take you to places you've dreamed of
