Analysis of Forever and a Day
He’s the one
I picture myself with,
Forever and a day.
I only know so much about love, though.
And I’m so young.
I doubt he feels the same,
But only time will tell.
The stings in my heart are still there,
From last time I liked him.
But if he seems to be the one,
What should I care?
I picture myself by his side
For forever and a day.
My tears I have shed,
Each day the torture had gone by.
This time I won’t make the same mistake.
I won’t tell them.
They will only tell.
It will be different
In forever and a day.
