I don't use a word like forever I'm working with time If I'm lucky I'll grow old And if I'm blessed, have a daughter If I'm wise she'll have a heart and eyes like yours There's not enough time left to love you right but I will find you life after life Surely I've loved you many times before Surely I was born To love you more Ignore the falling grains of sand You have my whole life, my man And in the time that I have my breath How can I serve you best? Surely as the leaves will fall Any woman worth her salt Would risk or give anything at all To know a love like this I didn't see you standing there Sometimes time ain't fair But oh my love, oh my soul Come in, come here Yeah, I don't use a word like forever A word ain't enough Deeper than darkness, longer than light Bolder than blood See that flame dancing Flicker in the wind Does she know another fire somewhere Also burns and dims
