She woke the same way she woke everyday When the sunlight found her window And warmed her pillow In the shadows all her toys ran away As if nothing had happened Like they'd been there forever
And forever could be a long time We carved it under our names that day When we made love under blossom covered branches Told all our plans to the birds and the bees 'cause if we can't be together I've got this big old feeling Forever could be an eternity
She walked the same way she walked everyday Where the surf me the sand With her shoes in her hand Lonely footprints disappeared under waves That got colder and deeper Probably been there forever
