How Long is Forever?

How long is forever?

Cause I feel like I can’t wait

Keep crossing off calendar dates

Being prepared

For the day you call and say

You’ve always cared

I guess I’ll wait forever

Cause those feelings you never shared

But how long is that really?

Is it until the end of time

And beyond?

Or is it just until I hear our song

Playing on the radio

Is that how I am supposed to know?

You sent the message I did request

If I wait forever

You never call

And our song never plays

Will I waste my time counting days?

Am I the one who will be played

Because forever is a long time away

If you called I would not even know what to say

I guess forever can end

When I say goodbye

And just see you now as a distant friend

Because that is all we can be

Even though I know love lasts for infinity

And I know I loved you

Even though you did not believe it to be true

So forever will last as long as I like

It could be over tonight

Tomorrow I wake to a new day

At Dawn’s first light

Decide how I want to live, to live right

Forever is how long I will love thee

How long is forever?

That’s up to me
