Forever is a Long Time lyrics

You can't escape the feeling That rises from the root The sputter, then the silence When two hearts run out of fuel We painted little pictures To escape the big But now the light is fading And all our love with it And it won't quit It's a long way to the end of the road When you wandered, were you swallowed by the valley below? So focus hard on every following step Oh, 'cause forever is a long long time to guess Oh, forever is a long time Looking down the water This way a ripple rolls But turn your face away and Still you feel the cold But I'm shaking in my sheets now There's nowhere left to hide A hundred thousand mirrors That shatter you and I You and I It's a long way to the end of the road When you wandered, were you swallowed by the valley below? So focus hard on every following step Oh, 'cause forever is a long long time to guess Oh, forever is a long time
