From LOtUSFLOW3R2009

Lyrics

4Ever

[Verse 1]

If I never get to hold your hand

If I never get to be your man

That's okay, 'cause I've got other plans

Right now, right now, oh

[Verse 2]

If I never get to kiss your lips

If I never get to feel your hips close to me

That's okay, I ain't gonna trip

Not now, no how

[Chorus]

'Cause I've got forever

Forever, oh

Eternity is just one kiss away

So they say

[Verse 3]

The opera, Jill Scott or the fair (fair)

Cyprus, if I never get to take you swimming there

If you never know how much I care, oh

I swear (I swear) Know what? It's not fair (Not fair)

No (No)

[Verse 4]

If I never get to make you laugh, ooh

If we never get to take a bubble bath

Y’see, I don't want to part with you, not tonight

If you gonna be a part of my past

I just won't, I just won't

Listen

[Chorus]

I just want forever, oh

I just want forever

Eternity is just one kiss away

What'd you say?

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Forever

[Spoken Interlude]

So many things

We can do in the new world

I can be your future lover

You can be my future girl

[Verse 5]

If I never get to see your smile

Underneath the white veil, walking up the aisle

I just might go crazy, I might go wild

So let me tell you, baby

Stop looking at me like that

Unless you want me to bite that

[Chorus]

Forever, you know what I'm talkin' 'bout

Forever

Eternity is just one kiss away

What you say?

Forever

Forever

A million tomorrows

Is better than one day

Forever

[Outro]

I don't want to kiss your lips

Until I get to your... hips
