A friendship has begun, Father and a son, Wisdom and the ways, Hands to keep you safe, Push the pieces back in line. A new day has begun, The rising of the sun, The sound of laughter plays, Symphonies of grace, And it echo's in my mind. Why can't it be like this forever? Moments that we share now together, Why can't it be like this for life? For life. Look how far that we have come, But the journey's just begun, The fragments rearranged, The chemistry has changed, A young heart is beating strong, Now all the pieces still belong. Why can't it be like this forever? Moments that we share now together, Why can't it be like this for life? For life. If ever things seem too high remember, The rivers seem far too wide remember this, I'll be right here. If ever you feel there's no escape, You take a wrong turn and lose your way, I'll be right here. Remember that when you go away, Into the big wide open space, Experience the fruit in gives, Learn to love, And learn to live. Why can't it be like this forever? Moments that we share now together, Why can't it be like this for life? For life. Why can't it be like this forever? Moments that we share now together, Why can't it be like this for life? For life. I remember the walks in the park in the springtime, Snow angels lying on our backs the good times, The years will come and go, And I'll miss this, I'll miss this.
