Forever from Here

Well it was August in Ohio

She was closin' up the stand

I was three days off the rig

She was headed back to Oberlin

She said "Honey, where you going?

'Cause I got some time to kill

And I could show you some company

And you look like you know the drill"

She said "Baby, let's go down to the water

See the lights are shining out on the pier"

Hold me close until we finish the bottle

What we got ain't exactly clear

But it sure looks like forever

Sure looks like forever from here

I probably should have told her

That I've been lonely for a spell

But the way that you kiss me in the dark that night

You could say I fell

And the next thing I remember

Well, I was waking up alone

With every word I didn't say

Chasin' me all the way back to San Antone

She said "Baby, let's go down to the water

See the lights are shining out on the pier"

Hold me close until we finish the bottle

What we got ain't exactly clear

But it sure looks like forever

Sure looks like forever from here

Looking back it makes you question

Could she have been the best one?

Was she the best one?

She said "Baby, let's go down to the water

See the lights are shining out on the pier"

Hold me close until we finish the bottle

What we got ain't exactly clear

She said "Baby, let's go down to the water

See the lights are shining out on the pier"

Hold me close until we finish the bottle

What we got ain't exactly clear

But it sure looks like forever

Sure looks like forever from here

Forever from here

Sure looks like forever from here
