You're climbing mountains, I'm on a hill You're always running I'm standing still You live for the moment, no future no past I may be a fool to love by the rules and want it to last If you ever have forever in mind I'll be here and easy to find If your heart isn't ready to lay down with mine If you ever have forever in mind The music has ended still you want to dance I know that feeling, I can't take that chance You live for the moment no future no past I may be a fool to love by the rules, I want it to last If you ever have forever in mind I'll be here and easy to find If your heart isn't ready to lay down with mine If you ever have forever in mind
