forever

I've been thinking about those summer nights

Playing hide and seek in the cemetery

Freaked out of our minds

I've been thinking about another lifetime

I know I was there, but it doesn't feel fair

'Cause it doesn't feel mine

You said you wanted to believe in something

I guess I hoped it could be me

And I couldn't wait, forever felt like such a long time

Up all night, sanguine and wide-eyed

There was a day I thought that things would be just fine

And forever felt like such a long time

I've been thinking about the long goodbyes

You couldn't stay away

To save your life

I've been thinking about the thing that died

And I can't get it back no matter how nice I ask

Oh, trust me I've tried

You said you needed to be free, and later on

You said she reminded you of me

And I couldn't stay, forever felt like such a long time

Up all night, heartsick and tongue-tied

There was a day I thought that things would be just fine

And forever felt like such a long time

What a waste of my mortality

Some things that are, were not supposed to be

And I couldn't wait, forever felt like such a long time

Up all night, sanguine and wide-eyed

I couldn't stay, forever felt like such a long time

Now forever is passing me by

Is passing me by (Is passing me by)

Is passing me by (Is passing me by)

Is passing me by (Is passing me by)

Is passing me by
