8 Years

Not talkin' 'bout a year, no not three or four,
I don't want that kind of forever in my life anymore.
Forever always seems to be around when it begins,
but forever never seems to be around when it ends.
So give me your forever.
Please, your forever.
Not a day less will do from you.

People spend so much time every single day,
runnin' 'round all over town givin' their forever away.
But no not me, I won't let my forever roam,
and now I hope I can find my forever a home.
So give me your forever.
Please your forever.
Not a day less will do from you.

Like a handless clock with numbers an infinite of time,
no not the forever found only in the mind.
Forever always seems to be around when things begin,
but forever never seems to be around when things end.
So give me your forever.
Please, your forever.
Not a day less will do from you.

-Ben Harper, Forever
