Forever...

I could give you what you want,
It sounds awful fun to me.
But why waste today
On what I’ll throw away tomorrow?
For I could never give you forever.

I hear you tell me to come with you,
Swimming, movies, dinner and dance.
But I’m sorry I just will not be
What you want me to be,
For I could never give you forever.

You want me more than a friend,
You want a companion for life.
But why do you call me Darlin’
When I’ve told you
I could never give you forever?

I could love you I suppose,
I could mother your children, sure.
But I won’t for it’s defying my very existence
To do all for the glory of the Lord.
For I could never give you forever...

With no vision the people perish,
It’s nothing against you.
But I will not stand with a man
Who is not wrapped up in Christ.
So I could never give you forever.

Don’t make me wish for Dom,
Yes I long for my prince
But you are not he.
Sorry man your time is up,
Never could I give you forever.
