For All Time Lyrics



For all time

We said we'd be

Lovers for all time

And eternity



Words we try to keep

Then leave behind

When we can't find the thought

We thought we'd be lovers for all time



For all time

I heard you say

We'd be friends forever

Not less a day



And we swore it in

Our blood

But it turned to mud

And now we call it child's play



For all time

I thought I'd be

The baby

In my family



But I know now

They can't possibly

Take care of me

For all time



For all time

I was sure

That you would be mine

Forever more



But foolish me

Fallin' for tricks

I've seen before

I thought we'd be lovers for all time



So if not

For all time

That I can tempt you

With my charms



Then baby

In the meantime

I will hold you

In my arms
