Lyrics
I don't want to live forever, unless forever with you
Don't wanna cry tonight, from this pain I'm going through
Don't you wanna spend forever, spend forever with me
These next few years, we'll just have to wait and see
All this, pain it is worth it, for just
One kiss, one touch
All this, time it is worth it, for just
One kiss, one touch, that'll bring me back to you
We just have to end this, it's just not practical you know
Practicalities, decide where we gonna go
Yes, it's gonna be painful, no need for disdainful
Thoughts and feelings
Control where you're going, your heart is not knowing
Of these logical dealings
Let's enjoy this moment together
Sitting out, in this beautiful summer weather
I hope you keep this little song, in your memory
So when you hear just one note, you will think of me
