Permanent - David Cook

Is this the moment where I look you in the eye?

Forgive my broken promise that you’ll never see me cry

And everything, it will surely change even if I tell you I won’t go away today

Will you think that you’re all alone

When no one’s there to hold your hand?

And all you know seems so far away

And everything is temporary, rest your head

I’m permanent

I know he’s living in hell every single day

And so I ask «Oh god, is there some way

For me to take his place?»

And when they say it’s all touch and go

I wish I could make it go away

But still you say

Will you think that you’re all alone

When no one’s there to hold your hand?

When all you know seems so far away

And everything is temporary, rest your head

I’m permanent

I’m permanent

Is the moment where I look you in the eye?

Forgive my promise that you’ll never see me cry
