Lyrics
What?s Forever For?
By Mel Stubbs
© 2006
The picture on the wall is mocking me
Another bitter reminder
Of the sweetest memories.
I?ve thought to take the picture down
But the hole that it would leave
Would drain all the life out of me.
It?s like you?re haunting me.
But that?s the only way to keep you near me.
Chorus
So what?s forever for if you?re not there?
So how do I explain the emptiness that stares me in the mirror
Every morning when I try to start my day
Like I?ve done before.
So what?s forever for?
I left your voice on our answering machine.
Cause every once in a while
I still need you to talk to me.
The TV?s on, it?s about all I have.
Cause the life I always wanted
I realize I already had.
It?s like you?re haunting me.
But that?s the only way to keep you near me.
Chorus:
Why do we always want?
What seems out of reach?
I wonder if you ever think of me?
Do you miss me?
Chorus:
