Well my mama used to say

If you find a nice girl

It'll all work out

And my daddy used to say

If you can't do what you feel

Son, just walk out

But they don't know a thing about us

We're wild and free

But freedom ain't such a good thing

When you tell me to leave

Why'd you do a thing like that?

I'm begging of you

Won't you take me back

Even if everything we see is black

There's still a chance that we can make it back

I said that it's forever

Forever's what I mean

I look at you forever

Forever's all I see

Well I can take the blows

But you punch a little low

And it hurts me there

Of course I feel the love

That should be enough

But you don't play fair

I wanna hear the sweet sweet music

Of your apology

But you just say you're sorry

That you ever set your eyes on me

Why do you do a thing like that?

I'm begging of you

Won't you take me back

Even if everything we see is black

There's still a chance that we can make it back

I said that it's forever

Forever's what I mean

I look at you forever

Forever's all I see

Cross the line to dream of golden skies

I see the door you close behind your eyes

Break it down

Break it down

Break it down

Forever, forever's what I need

When I look at you

Forever, forever's all I see

I wanted to be close

It's what I miss the most

I ain't ever felt so low

When you spit me right out

Why'd you do a thing like that?

I'm begging of you

Won't you take me back

Even if everything we see is black

There's still a chance that we can make it back

Why'd you do a thing like that?

I'm begging of you

Won't you take me back

Even if everything we see is black

There's still a chance that we can make it back

I said that it's forever

Forever's all I see

I look at you forever

Forever's all I see
