You nuzzled my auburn hair
called me soft and kind and fair
told me you would
always be there
"Forever", you said

In case you didn't know
forever means we take it slow
forever means you take my hand
it means a lifetime together planned
every morning, every day, every year

forever means never ending
forever means love, always tending
to my heart and my soul
it means life with me
with no parole

We didn't last forever

But just so you know
when you tell another girl forever
she's going to expect the same thing
especially when you give her
a big diamond ring

Next time you may want to consider
that "forever" has no expiration date

Your promises came too little too late.
