We thought we had it all
We thought we'd go unscathed
We thought our love would border on infinity
We thought that we were free
The world would disappear
We left ourselves wide open and we had no fear

But forever came and went
Forever stumbled through
Forever had poor sense of time and made a mess of me and you
Forever had us fooled
We fell for it again
Now time is standing still forever

Lying next to you
But you're already gone
Too much has been said and it can't be undone
It's so hard to comprehend
When ashes fade to dust
I touch your water and the iron turns to rust

So forever came and went
Forever stumbled through
Forever had poor sense of time and made a mess of me and you
Forever had us fooled
We fell for it again
Now time is standing still forever came and went

We thought we had it all
We thought we'd go unscathed
We thought our love would border on infinity
But forever was a shame
Stole a little piece of us
To live up to its name was really just too much

Forever came and went
Forever stumbled through
Forever had poor sense of time and made a mess of me and you

Forever came and went
Forever stumbled through
Forever had poor sense of time and made a mess of me and you
Forever had us fooled
We fell for it again
And now time is standing still forever came and went

Oh, I thought we had it all, oh
I thought we had it all, every day until the end
You and me, oh
