Forever You
Dennis van Aarssen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A sports car isn't what I want when I can get there on foot
No need to be a VIP, im comfortable in my own shoes
While I make like a drink or two, without am i just half a fool?
In this crazy world full of maid beliefs, nothing's what it seems
We can lose ourselves needing what
Want instead of wanting what we need
Here's to you, forever you
The way you do the simplest things you do
The way you move me, the way you suit me
How everything is the way it should be
The one I live for and die for
The one I wish I had more time for
Here's to you, and to our days
How I pray you'll always stay forever you
Going places I've never been
I've seen luck and how luck it runs out
I've seen people playing games with
Love and wonder what it is all about
I'm living in the fast lane
Feels like a million miles from home
When some pretty face comes up to me I miss you even more
Here's to you, forever you
The way you do the simplest things you do
The way you move me, the way you suit me
How everything is the way it should be
The one I live for and die for
The one I wish I had more time for
Here's to you, and to our days
How I pray you'll always stay forever you
In this crazy world full of maid beliefs, nothing's what it seems
We can lose ourselves needing what
We want instead of wanting what we need
Here's to you, forever you
The way you do the simplest things you do
The way you move me, the way you suit me
How everything is the way it should be
The one I live for and die for
The one I wish I had more time for
Here's to you, and to our days
How I pray you'll always stay
The one I live for and die for
The one I wish I had more time for
Here's to you, and to our days
How I pray you'll always stay forever you
