Forever

Let's drive for no reason, let's see where these wheels land

Let's grind down the curve of this earth

You look fine in the evening, and, honey, it's starting to storm

When we kissed in the car in the school parking lot

Where I'd go with my friends to get drunk

Used to wish I meant anything to anywhere, to anyone

When forever was a sentence, sentence to death

Oh, when you were a running tear, I was a drop of sweat

And the edges of your soul, I haven't seen yet

Now I'm glad I get forever to see where you end

I won't be alone for the rest of my life

I'll build a boat for when the river gets high

And I'll meet a girl in the heat of July

And I'll tell her so she knows

That I'm broke, but I'm real rich in my head

That I broke a bone that never healed in my hand

So when I hold her close, I might loosen my grip

But I won't ever let her go

I won't ever let her go

Remember when we called the cops

'Cause you got too high

And you got scared?

The cops just laughed

We can't make rent, so we window-shop

In the Upper West Side

Oh, my God

Could you imagine that?

I won't be alone for the rest of my life

I'll build a boat for when the river gets high

And I'll meet a girl in the heat of July

And I'll tell her so she knows

That I'm broke, but I'm real rich in my head

That I broke a bone that never healed in my hand

So when I hold her close, I might loosen my grip

But I won't ever let her go

I won't ever let her go

When forever was a sentence, sentence to death

Oh, when you were a running tear, I was a drop of sweat

And the edges of your soul, I haven't seen yet

Now I'm glad I get forever to see where you end

To see where you end
