Forever Is a Long Time

Stay awake forever
And forever is a long time

I stay awake forever
And you know forever's a very long time

Think about the future
You know the future's a disappointment

Keep my eyes open
I know it is too late
Ain't gonna be all right
Keep my eyes open
I know it is too late
Ain't gonna be all right
Not this time

Babe, won't you stay
Stay with me
Babe, through the darkness
Stay with me
Babe, can't you promise me
It's gonna be all right

Stay awake forever
You know forever is long time

Keep my eyes open
Think I can see what went wrong

I think about the future
But the future just disappoints me

Keep my eyes open
I know it is too late
Ain't gonna be all right
Keep my eyes open
I know it is too late
It ain't gonna be all right
Not this time
