Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I've been waiting far too long, staring at the sun

Waiting for the night to come so I can get things done

I can't wait for this no more, eyes have come undone

If my star will ever rise, let it be the only one

[Verse 2]

And if I see you waiting for the setting sun

It will never come

And if it ever comes, you're forever young

You're forever young

[Verse 3]

Ice is just a remedy for pain and rising heat

Hold it in your hands and watch the puddles form around your feet

If you drink your water it might just stop the pain

Dream without the fever drowning holes around your name

[Verse 4]

And if I see you waiting for the setting sun

It will never come

And if it ever comes, you're forever young

You're forever young

[Verse 5]

If you're scared about the future, I'm scared about the past

And if you're feeling ill, it's 'cause the world is spinning fast

Yeah, you're staring at the sun, yeah, you better all hold on

And watch the sky become the ground

[Verse 6]

(Forever young)

(Forever young)

[Verse 7]

And if I see you waiting for the setting sun

It will never come

(Forever young)

And if it ever comes, you're forever young

You're forever young

(Forever young)

(Forever young)
