Love You Forever
Gretchen and the Pickpockets Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I still believe in love to last always
Not just in the movies, romance books or fairy tales
Love so unconditional it makes me so confessional
Wanna hold onto this loving feeling I feel til I get home to

My forever love
Soft talk on pillows, champagne and fruit
Rain 'gainst my window and you
My forever love
Jasmine scent candles filling our room
Now all that I need is time and you

I'm free to love free to give my heart
Free to be the me I always saw myself to be
I love so unconditional it makes me so confessional
Wanna hold onto this loving feeling I feel til I get home to

My forever love
Soft talk on pillows champagne and fruit
Rain 'gainst my window and you
My forever love
Jasmine scent candles filling our room
Now all that I need is time and you

My forever love
Soft talk on pillow, champagne and fruit
Rain 'gainst my window and you
My forever love
Jasmine scent candles filling our room
Now all that I need is time and you

My forever love
Soft talk on pillows champagne and fruit
Rain 'gainst my window and you
My forever love




Jasmine scent candles filling our room
Now all that I need is time and you

Does the guitar figure that starts at 0:20 remind anyone of another song? Not saying it's a ripoff -- this is a great song -- we build on what comes before us.
