Forever And Ever Lyrics

The sky is painting us a sunset
The sunset sky is giving us a picturesque view.

while the shadow of our summer
However, summer is coming to a close, and with it comes change.

is passing us by
We are watching it fade away.

and in its parting rays, i feel my arms
In the last rays of summer, the artist is losing grip of their loved one.

losing their grip around you, your slipping away
Despite their efforts to hold on, they cannot stop their partner from leaving.

sporting a smile that is false and full of sadness
Their loved one is trying to put on a brave face, despite feeling sad and lost.

shes wearing a look that says 'im trying my hardest not to cry'
They are attempting to hide their pain by disguising their tears.

and if the choice was mine,
If the artist had a say in the matter,

i would place you in the heavens right next to our star
They would immortalize their partner as a constellation.

and if the choice was mine,
Again, if the artist had a say,

i would let your beauty compliment the sky
They would allow the beauty of their partner to enhance the world around them.

nooone walks these streets as much as we do
The artist and their partner share a deep connection with their surroundings.

makes me feel the way taht we do
This bond fills the singer with a sense of comfort and belonging.

everyones jealous but noone speaks
Onlookers envy their relationship, but do not interfere.

and noones looked at me through eyes like yours
The singer has never had anyone else look at them with the same love and affection as their partner.

or talked to me with a sweeter voice than yours
Their loved one's voice is the sweetest to the artist.

please dont forget me while your away
The artist hopes that their partner will remember them while they are apart.

the sky, grows dark, you leave today
As their partner departs, darkness sets in.

the sky, grows dark, you've left today
Their loved one has officially gone, leaving the singer in despair.

and if i had to die to find the perfect way
The artist would go so far as to give up their life to show their love.

(and the choice was mine)
If they had the power to do so,

to show you how i feel, then girl i would
They would do anything for their partner to understand their emotions.

(i would place you in the heavens right next to our star)
Even as a constellation, their partner would be a part of their world.

And if i had the time, and if the choice was mine
Again, if the artist had the power,

(and if the chioce was mine)
If they could make the decision,

I would let your beauty compliment the sky
Their partner's beauty would add to the majesty of the world.

(i would let your beauty compliment the sky)
Their loved one's beauty would enhance the beauty of the sky.
