This could be forever, baby This could be forever, baby This could be forever, baby This could be forever, maybe Do you like the sunshine, do you like the snow? Do you wanna talk about it, or be alone? I think that you should know that, this could be forever, baby Open up your eyes and tell me whatcha thinkin' Open up your mind, and tell me whatcha seein' Inside of me, where I be fussin', fuckin' up this evenin' I probably couldn't fix it if I knew the reason Up on the sea, where I see you fallin' in the deep end Is it love? I would really love to know the meanin' What's the grudge that you're holdin'? Hold my hand let me take you to the land Where the ocean and the sands are meetin' Look at the sun, all we need to see to know our freedom Open up your heart, if we don't love then we fall apart This could be forever, baby, I never seen you wetter, baby Then when the tears fall soakin' up your sweater, baby I didn't mean harm, don't make me regret it, baby Cause if I never knew ya, I could never do this to ya Hope you understand, they never taught me how to be a man Only how to be a shooter, I only need the time to prove it Cause this could be forever, baby This could be forever, baby This could be forever, baby This could be forever maybe Do you like the sunshine, do you like the snow? Do you wanna talk about it, or be alone? I think that you should know, that this could be forever, baby My teachers told me we was slaves My mama told me we was kings I don't know who to listen to I guess we somewhere in between My feelings told me love is real But feelings known to get you killed My feelings if I miss it's true I spend my moments missin' you I'm searchin' for atonement, do I blame my darker tone? I know somethings are better left unsaid and people left alone Pick up the phone Don't leave me alone in this cruel, cruel world
