Forever's Just A Stopping Place

Before you came into her life

I used to think she'd be my wife

Now in the small town where we all stay

We pass each other almost every day

 

So we just tip our hats when we pass

Each other out on the town

You smile at me and I smile back

And she looks at the ground

I'll bet you think her love's forever

A word she likes to throw around

But in time you find it's just a place

Where she moves her heart around

 

Her forever's just a stopping place

Where her love comes and goes

She never seems to really care

Who gets hurt or even knows

She moves from love to love

Playing out each clever part

But her forever's just a stopping place

For empty dreams and broken hearts

 

So let's tip our hats to all that

To the new love you have found

You look so good arm in arm

That you're the talk of the town

I lived that love before you

It wasn't long before I found

Her forever's just a stopping place

Where she moves her love around

 

Her forever's just a stopping place

where her love comes and goes

she never seems to really care

who gets hurt or even knows

she moves from love to love -

playing out each clever part

but her forever's just a stopping place

for empty dreams and broken hearts

Her forever's just a stopping place

where her love comes and goes

she never seems to really care

who gets hurt or even knows

she moves from love to love -

playing out each clever part

but her forever's just a stopping place

for empty dreams and broken hearts

Her forever's just a stopping place

for empty dreams and broken hearts

Ohoo
