I fell too hard, and much too deep in love with you.
An' I let you come and go at will, it seems.
But you're back again: this time, you say, forever:
But I wonder just how long forever means.

How long is forever this time?
How long until one night, you don't come home again?
(How long?)
How long is forever this time?
How long until I'm all alone again?

People say I'm fooloish when I take you back,
An' it could be they're right, but who can say?
An' you'd be welcome here, within my arms forever,
Even if forever ends, for me, today.

How long is forever this time?
How long until one night, you don't come home again?
(How long?)
How long is forever this time?
How long until I'm all alone again?

(How long?)
How long is forever this time?
How long until one night, you don't come home again?
(How long?)
How long is forever this time?
(How long?)
How long until I'm all alone again?
(How long?)
How long until I'm all alone again?
