How long is forever
I asked the young child next to me
Oh, forever is a long time
At least till the end of next week

How long is forever
I asked the young man running down the street
Over his shoulder he said he had no time to talk
He had a deadline he had to meet

How long is forever
I asked the old man as he leaned on his crutch
Forever he said my friend
Forever is never long enough

Guess I'll wonder about forever, forever
As it seems to always change with time
Whether young or old or middle of the road
Forever will be forever a state of mind
