I did the best that I could, the best that I know
Still we go on and on in this war
I kept you under the sun away from the cold
And I sheltered you from the storm

Tell me how much more in love could a man ever be
How can I go on my own
Do you understand?

What's forever for
If you leave me now, if you walk away
Remember the vows we swore
If we ain t forever, tell me
What's forever for?

Can't get you out of my mind, out of my heart
Girl I believe in you
We lay so close in the dark yet so far apart
You're like a stranger in my arms

Tell me where did we go wrong?
Should I blame myself?
We had it in the palm of our hands

Chorus

Tell me how much more in love could a man ever be
How can I go on on my own
I can't understand

If love ain't forever tell me
What's forever for?
