Forever and now
You fill my mind
Still carry the heart
You left behind

Memories dusted and grey
Like locked away pieces of art
Tears stream down my face
‘Cause your love I cannot replace

I promised you then
I would promise you now
I will love you the same
When you’re gone
I couldn’t make you stay

Stare into the future
A shadow of my old self
So lonely and scared
So unprepared

I thought our love would survive
Through time and through pain
Nothing will ever mean the same

I promised you then
I would promise you now
I will love you the same
When you’re gone

I couldn’t make you stay
Couldn’t make you stay
Couldn’t make you stay
Couldn’t make you stay

I feel your breath on my skin
Gently you hold me tight
I open my eyes
You’re no longer by my side

Promised you then
I would promise you now
I will love you the same
But you’re gone, gone away

Couldn’t make you stay
Couldn’t make you stay
You’re gone
I couldn’t make you stay
