Forevermore Lyrics

I sat down and wrote you a letter

Begging for a second chance

But I ain't got no stamps

I filled out all the pages with words and pretty phrases

But you ain't got no time for that

Instead, you're moving on, driving east, singing along

To your brand new favorite song I've never heard

My restless young redeemer

Oh boy, you should've seen her

Well I guess that we all get what we deserve

Carry you inside my heart, carry you inside my soul

Carry you inside my blood, forevermore

I sat down and wrote you a song

Memorized the words to sing

But I ain't got no strings

And even if I did I'm sure that I'd just fuck it up

Oh, I never knew when to keep my mouth shut

I hear you're doing good

With your new friends and neighborhood

Her new arms to hold you as you fall asleep

Me, I ain't so well, I think everyone can tell

That I've lost the only thing I's meant to keep

Carry you inside my heart, carry you inside my soul

Carry you inside my blood, forevermore

Forevermore

Ohhh, your love's an anchor inside of my soul

And I will carry you inside of this life, until the day I die

Ohhh, your love's an anchor inside of my soul

And I will carry you inside of this life, until the day I die

I sat down and wrote you a letter

Spelling out a slow goodbye

It was worth a try
