Forever is a long time, darling,
It is not the cold air of winter chill
Which the sun will kill and thus born spring.
It is not the stars that light the night
Which, in fact, merely reflects the sun.
For as I said, forever is a long time, mate.
When you said you'll love me forever,
Did you realize forever is a long time?
You pledged your love to me, your girl
And you promised we'll be like poems that rhyme.
When you said you'll protect me forever,
Until death do as part and still you will
Watch over me from Heaven,
Did you realize what you've promised isn't real?
Because, honey, forever isn't like what you think,
The sun will not shine forever,
The trees will not grow forever,
The moon will not be moon forever,
And the earth and its people is not ceased to exist forever.
For it is told the time will come,
When we all be mere memories,
And the new world will do us harm,
And all of us will be just stories.
Forever is a long time, boy,
Don't you make promises with your toy.
