Fools of Love - Live Forever (Never Die) Lyrics

There's a bird in the sky
I've been watching it fly
In a circle outside
The window of my bedroom
Why won't it soar away to some far-off place
And spread its golden wings?
It just flutters nearby
Forms a nest in my mind
I've been feeling like a flower
That has barely taken root
I have blossomed but I still have yet to bloom
With the silvery grey
And the wrinkles of age
The afternoon light
Glows warmly across your face
In fragments of memory
Lost and retrieved
Assembled patiently
Into words on a page
Your story is safe
I've been tearing out the pages
Trying to rewrite and rework
With your initials in the margins full of notes
If only I could live forever
And this book would never end
I'd set it up in flames then start it all again
But it's not like that
I can't live a lie that I will never die
But I'll go slowly and gracefully into it
No, I can't live a lie that I will never die
But I'll go slowly and gracefully into it
No, I can't live a lie that I will never die
But I'll go slowly and gracefully into it
No, I can't live a lie that I will never die
But I'll go slowly and gracefully into it
No, I can't live a lie that I will never die
But I'll go slowly and gracefully into it
No, I can't live a lie that I will never die
But I'll go slowly and gracefully into it
No, I can't live a lie that I will never die
But I'll go slowly and gracefully into it
No, I can't live a lie that I will never die
But I'll go slowly and gracefully into it
The seasons go by
With the passing of time
As I carry my pride and regrets alike
But one day I'll pull the weeds
And plant new seeds
In gardens that you grew
Where I blossomed and then finally came into bloom
