Forever Young
Afflecks Palace Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel alive
Under crimson skies
The colours collide

Shall we go
Shall we go
Shall we go
Shall we go
To the waters edge
Where we can throw ourselves into the deepest blue
From up high

Say you're spending the night time with me
We'll die in each others arms
Say you'll stay for the Sunrise with me
We'll be forever young

We feel the rain
Drip through our veins
The puddles refill again

Shall we go
Shall we go
Shall we go
Shall we go
To the waters edge
Where we can throw ourselves into the deepest blue
From up high

Say you're spending the night time with me
We'll die in each others arms
Say you'll stay for the Sunrise with me
We'll be forever young

Sound hits slowly without pain
Rainmaker hits the beat again
The head is melting in a golden fire
Spirals in the eyes
Filled with thought desires

Sound hits slowly without pain
Rainmaker hits the beat again
The head is burning in a golden fire
Spirals in the eyes
Filled with thought desires

Sound Hits Slowly Without Pain
Rainmaker Surfs The Beat Again
The head is melting in a burning shower
Spirals in the eyes
Spirals in the eyes
Spirals in the eyes

Say you're spending the night time with me
We'll die in each others arms




Say you'll stay for the Sunrise with me
We'll be forever young

A mate from work played this the other day and I instantly stopped what I was doing and just listened in awe. This is absolutely beautiful, I am 51 and remember well how music from my teens and twenties used to be exciting and meaningful. What you guys are doing gives me so much optimism for the future. Much love from Liverpool.

The future of Manchester is bright. This song is perfection, the brilliant rhythm combines with class lyrics. Well done Afflecks Palace you’ve done well.
