I Want to Stand Forever - Wendy James

This used to seem so important

Then again, what is there left to say?

I came up with a dream once

And if I had my way

I would never answer

When they tried to wake me up

>From my beautiful reverie

It might be a dream

But it’s my dream

A fantastic disastrous affair

I want to stand forever

'Till the mountains crumble into the sea

And that’s not as unlikely as it used to be

'Till the waters rise and we’re swept away

And that could happen almost any day

Yes, I want to stand forever

>From now 'till the thirteenth of never

You can throw me in the hellish river

Of my eternally hopeful endeavor

I want to stand… forever
