Forever

Pretend tonight is the last night

That I will hold you in my arms

Pretend today is the last day

I will get to see your face

Its been the best it could be

For this short amount of time

Now that you're all I see

I hope that you now believe me...



Please close your eyes

Hold them tight

I'll keep you safe and warm

Within my arms

Do you feel the pulse?

The constant rhythm

That our hearts beat

My beats faster whenever you're with me...



So take your time

I don't want to rush this

But won't you be mine?

You've got me in pieces

Trying to figure you out

Understanding why this happened so fast

I promise to be what you need

I promise, together we can make this last...



Forever

As long as you'd like

Forever

Won't you let me hold you in my arms?

Forever

Is a word you cannot bear

Forever is forever away

We can simply take tiny steps until we're there



Forever

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I decided to name this the single most scary word I could think of...but yet its so comforting.  This way you know that I'm here with you till the end...which isn't even on the horizon.
