Forever
Forever
My mind knows how long my wife’s been away
In my heart it feels like just a day
The meaning of closure to me
Is closing the door behind my wife and me
At night when I go to bed
I have thoughts in my head
If after I turn off the light
I should pass during the night
If I should pass during the day
The same words I would say
I wish it’s my wife that I see
Looking at me
I’ll be happy and calm
When she takes me by the arm
We’ll go off together
This time it will be forever
