Forever

Lyrics

[INTRO — almost a cappella, intimate] If tomorrow takes you somewhere My hands can’t reach, Don’t remember how I left you, Remember how I loved you deep. [VERSE 1] I have carried every moment Like a photograph inside, Every laugh across the kitchen, Every tear we tried to hide. And if loving means releasing What my heart still wants to hold, I will open up these trembling hands And let our story turn to gold. [PRE-CHORUS] There are loves that disappear When the final door is closed, But what I feel for you Is deeper than goodbye could ever go. [CHORUS] When forever calls my name, I will still be loving you. Past the distance, past the silence, Past everything we knew. If the stars forget their fire, If the oceans lose their blue, There will still be one thing living— The love I carry for you. Oh, I may have to walk away, But my heart will tell the truth: I will love you Beyond the last goodbye. [VERSE 2] Maybe someone else will find you When your world is needing light. I hope they learn your quiet language, I hope they hold your heart just right. I won’t ask you to remember me With sadness in your eyes. I would rather be the reason You still believe that love survives. [PRE-CHORUS] What we had was never wasted, Not a second, not a scar. You became a part of who I am, And nothing takes that part. [CHORUS — BIGGER] When forever calls my name, I will still be loving you. Past the distance, past the silence, Past everything we knew. If the stars forget their fire, If the oceans lose their blue, There will still be one thing living— The love I carry for you. I may have to walk away, But my heart will tell the truth: I will love you Beyond the last goodbye. [BRIDGE — music drops, voice exposed] So go… Go where your soul is calling. Dream… Dream every dream we couldn’t reach. And if one night you feel the wind Move softly across your skin… Maybe that will be my love Whispering: “You were worth everything.” [BUILD — orchestra enters] No goodbye can erase us. No distance can undo The miracle of finding A love as real as you. [FINAL CHORUS — KEY CHANGE, FULL ORCHESTRA + GOSPEL CHOIR] WHEN FOREVER CALLS MY NAME, I WILL STILL BE LOVING YOU! When the years become a lifetime, When the old becomes the new. If the heavens lose their thunder, If the sun forgets to move, I will stand beyond the ending Still believing in our truth! And wherever life may take me, There is one thing time can’t do: It can’t take away The part of me That learned to love Because of you! [FINAL BELT] I WILL LOVE YOU… BEYOND… THE LAST… GOODBYE! [OUTRO — piano, almost whispered] And if forever really exists… I’ll find you there.
