Forever doesn't quite seem long enough

When I was 5 years old

I couldn't imagine being 12

When I was in high school

40 meant that you were dead

Maybe everybody feels this way when they start getting older

But I love you so much I'm scared you won't always be here

What if you get sick and you leave me when you're 38

What if I get reckless driving on the interstate

Ohhh forever doesn't quite seem long enough

I wish I had known you when we were in second grade

Draw you stupid pictures eat lunch with you every day

Ohhh forever doesn't quite seem long enough

The first week that I met you

I saw the sunrise every night

I think I knew it then

I always want to be by your side

Now every time I leave doesn't matter where I'm going

It doesn't feel like I need to go

If I could be with you at home

What if you get sick and you leave me when you're 38

What if I get reckless driving on the interstate

Ohhh forever doesn't quite seem long enough

I wish I had known you when we were in second grade

I'd have drawn you pictures eat lunch with you every day

Ohhh forever doesn't quite seem long enough

Doesn't quite seem long enough

Life's a short bittersweet mystery

And love is such a precious fragile thing

Like what if you get sick and you leave me when you're 38

What if I get reckless driving on the interstate

Ohhh forever doesn't quite seem long enough

I wish I had known you when we were in second grade

I'd have drawn you pictures eat lunch with you every day

Ohhh forever doesn't quite seem long enough

Forever forever doesn't seem

Forever doesn't quite seem long enough
