Lyrics

Relatively Permanent

I wonder if we'll still be together

Several years down the line

Well, how could I know

You can't know either

This could be

An accident

Or relatively

Permanent

But either way

I'm gonna stay

And love you for

Another day

How lucky can two people get

Hand in hand, side by side

A coincidence we even met

This could be

An accident

Or relatively

Permanent

But either way

I'm gonna stay

And love you for

Another day
