Forever (Doesn’t Quite Seem Long Enough)

Forever doesn't quite seem long enough

Oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

When I was five years old

Couldn't imagine being twelve

When I was in high school

Forty meant that you were dead

Oh, oh, oh, oh

And maybe everybody feels this way

When they start getting older

But I love you so much, I'm scared you won't always be here

What if you get sick and you leave me when you're thirty-eight?

What if I get reckless driving on the interstate?

Oh, forever doesn't quite seem long enough

I wish I had known when we were in second grade

Draw you stupid pictures, eat lunch with you every day

Oh, forever doesn't quite seem long enough

Mm, yeah

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

The first week that I met you

I saw the sunrise every night

I think I knew then

I always want to be by your side

But every time I leave

Doesn't matter where I'm going

It just feels like I need to go

If I could be with you at home

What if you get sick and you leave me when you're thirty-eight?

What if I get reckless driving on the interstate?

Oh, forever doesn't quite seem long enough

I wish I had known when we were in second grade

I'd have drawn you pictures, eat lunch with you every day

Oh, forever doesn't quite seem long enough

Oh, oh, oh (Oh, oh)

Doesn't quite seem long enough

Oh, oh

Life's a short, bittersweet mystery

And love's such a precious, fragile thing

Like, what if you get sick and you leave me when you're thirty-eight?

What if I get reckless driving on the interstate?

Oh, forever doesn't quite seem long enough

I wish I had known you when we were in second grade

I'd have drawn you pictures, eat lunch with you every day

Oh, forever doesn't quite seem long enough

Oh, yeah (Oh, oh)

Forever, forever

Oh, oh

Doesn't seem (Oh, oh)

Forever doesn't quite seem long enough
