Forever I've Known - The Maccabees

I’m a child to your voice

To the sound, though it can eat me alive

Ten toes and ten fingers

Any sense that I’ve had in this life

Won’t you stay a while

Kill some time, you know that I’ll make it easy, easy

And I know

Know it wouldn’t be forever

Forever I’ve known

Nothing stays forever

Couldn’t you still try

I want to see you

It’s not good enough to have you here in my head

Want the spray from the sea

Come on, I’ll make it easy

And I know

Know it wouldn’t be forever

Forever I’ve known

Nothing stays forever

Couldn’t you still try, couldn’t you still try

Couldn’t you still try, couldn’t you still try

Couldn’t you still try, couldn’t you still try

Couldn’t you still try, couldn’t you still try

Couldn’t you still try

Things I’ve said in a rage

Can still be unsaid

Took the cold from my bones

Took the cold from my head

And I know

I Know nothing stays forever

Forever I’ve known

Nothing stays forever

Couldn’t you just lie, couldn’t you just lie

Couldn’t you just lie, couldn’t you just lie

Couldn’t you just lie, couldn’t you just lie

Couldn’t you just lie, I’m a child to your voice

And I know

Know nothing stays forever

Forever I’ve known

Nothing stays forever

Forever I’ve known

Nothing stays forever

Forever I’ve known

Nothing stays forever

And I know

Know nothing stays forever

Forever I’ve known, forever I’ve known

Forever I’ve known
