Forever

If I were to thank you from the bottom of my heart
It wouldn't be deep enough.
If I were to reach for all of the stars,
they wouldn't be high enough to carry your name.

If I were to hold you forever in a tight embrace,
time would pass too quickly.
If I were to gaze upon you for eternity,
then I'd dread every blink of my eyes.
