Song lyrics

[Chorus:]
This could be forever, baby,
This could be forever, baby,
This could be forever, baby,
This could be forever, maybe.
Do you like the sunshine, do you like the snow?
Do you wanna talk about it, or be alone?
I think that you should know that, this could be forever, baby.

[Verse 1:]
Open up your eyes and tell me whatcha thinkin',
Open up your mind, and tell me whatcha seein'
Inside of me, why we fussin', fuckin' up this evening?
I probably couldn't fix it if I knew the reason.
Up on the sea, where I see you fallin' in the deep end,
Is it love? I would really love to know the meaning.
What's the grudge that you're holdin'?
Hold my hand, let me take you to the land
Where the ocean and the sands are meetin',
Look at the sun, all we need to see to know our freedom,
Open up your heart, if we don't love then we fall apart.
This could be forever, baby, I never seen you wetter, baby,
Than when the tears fall soakin' up your sweater, baby,
I didn't mean harm, don't make me regret it, baby,
‘Cause if I never knew ya, I could never do this to ya,
Hope you understand, they never taught me how to be a man,
Only how to be a shooter, I only need the time to prove it.

[Chorus:]
‘Cause this could be forever, baby
This could be forever, baby,
This could be forever, baby,
This could be forever, maybe,
Do you like the sunshine, do you like the snow?
Do you wanna talk about it, or be alone?
I think that you should know that, this could be forever, baby.

[Verse 2:]
My teachers told me we was slaves,
My mama told me we was kings,
I don't know who to listen to,
I guess we somewhere in between.
My feelings told me love is real,
But feelings known to get you killed,
I feel as if I'm misconstrued,
I spend my moments missin' you,
I'm searchin' for atonement, do I blame my darker tone?
I know somethings are better left unsaid, and people left alone,
Pick up the phone, don't leave me alone in this cruel, cruel world.
