You say you love me, I say I love you,
Our love’s sublime
So why’d you ever say “forever”?
Bring all those painful things to mind
Oh, I’ve heard that word before
Then the crowd began to roar
Tell me how long will forever be this time
You’ve had lovers and I’ve had others
We’ve played the game
Took a shot, tied the knot
But it always seems to end the same
Now you say you want to roll the dice
But I don’t make the big ones twice
So tell me how long will forever be this time
Lovers vows always sound melodious
When the moon is high and lights are low
But in the cold gray light of morning they grow odious
Why don’t we just see where this will go?
I’m not a quitter, don’t call me bitter,
Darlin’, please
Our love is good, knock on wood
But it never comes with guarantees
I’ve loved unwisely but too well
My life became a living hell
Tell me how long will forever be this time
And this love will last a long, long while
But I’m not walking down any aisle –
Tell me how long will forever be this time
No, don’t you say it’s written in the stars
Cause you’re from Venus and I’m from Mars
Tell me how long will forever be this time
