A Brand New Flight (This Can Forever Last)

Sometimes you have to drop it all

Stand up and pretend it doesn't matter at all

That everything isn't how you planned

You aren't ready for this plane to land

But you are slowly running out of gas

(This will never last)



Sometimes you have to up and go

Drop everything and do it solo

Stand up and take a stand

Oh baby, won't you hold my hand?

Together we can make it all go away

(And away it will forever stay)



Look outside your window and the reflection of your face

See the world anew from a different place

I know the stars don't shine as bright,

But won't you still look with me tonight?

I want to take you somewhere far and new

A place you only dreamed existed for you

Somewhere perfect and hard to find

A thought that had never crossed your mind...



Let's get away, take a chance on me

I'll show you things you'd never have seen

A little beauty in the twilight

A shooting star that shined so bright...

Just so long as you take a chance with me

I'll make damn sure you're happy as can be

And I'll give you a love so pure and true

Something you'd always wanted but never knew...



Sometimes you have to give up all the things you once thought were true...

And take a chance on somebody new

Understand his good intentions

Know that there is more than what he mentions

When he says you are beautiful

And when he says you are so wonderful

He really means that you are everything he had always wanted



Sometimes you have to drop it all

Stand up and take a chance to have it all

That even though everything isn't how you planned

You weren't ready for this plane to land

But the future is still coming up fast

(This can forever last)


Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is me trying to sum up into words many, many great things I feel about you and I. It's about how even if this started fast and neither of us may have been ready, it has the potential to forever last. Until then I will continue to show you who I am, and I will continue to try to prove to you that this IS real and that it DOES have to potential to last as long as we want. :)  You are wonderful!
