Forevermore

I sat down and wrote you a letter Begging for a second chance But I ain't got no stamps I filled out all the pages with words and pretty phrases But you ain't got no time for that Instead, you're moving on, driving east, singing along To your brand new favorite song I've never heard My restless young redeemer Oh boy, you should've seen her Well I guess that we all get what we deserve Carry you inside my heart, carry you inside my soul Carry you inside my blood, forevermore I sat down and wrote you a song Memorized the words to sing But I ain't got no strings And even if I did I'm sure that I'd just f*ck it up Oh, I never knew when to keep my mouth shut I hear you're doing good With your new friends and neighborhood Her new arms to hold you as you fall asleep Me, I ain't so well, I think everyone can tell That I've lost the only thing I's meant to keep Carry you inside my heart, carry you inside my soul Carry you inside my blood, forevermore Forevermore Ohhh, your love's an anchor inside of my soul And I will carry you inside of this life, until the day I die Ohhh, your love's an anchor inside of my soul And I will carry you inside of this life, until the day I die I sat down and wrote you a letter Spelling out a slow goodbye It was worth a try
