"forever and a day" lyrics

"forever and a day"

You feel like home on Christmas day
At 9 AM in second grade
Or the feeling that I had the very first time
That I saw the ocean
It seems so right but I don't know
I've flown this high and crashed and burned before
And I'm tired of scraping pieces
Of my broken heart up off the concrete, every time I fall again

But if you asked me what I'm thinking
When you're looking at me
Oh-oh
It kinda sorta feels like

You belong, right here in the middle
Of my tattooed arms, I could wait forever
And a day just to hear you say
You can see the future when you're looking at me
Tell me when the world slows down 'cause I'm stuck in the moment
That you turned around, begging God don't let her
Get away, tell me what it takes
I could love you for forever and forever and forever and a day

Ooh-ooh-ooh

I'm up and down, I'm back and forth
I swear you're the one and then I'm not sure
Oh I'm black and blue from pinching on my skin
Thinking that I'm still dreaming
I call my dad to hear some truth
I asked my mama how she knew she knew
And I wish that God would just spell out
A yes or no up in the clouds, so I could know what to do

But when I'm wrapped up in your arms
Under the backyard starlight
Oh-oh
It kinda sorta feels like

You belong, right here in the middle
Of my tattooed arms, I could wait forever
And a day just to hear you say
You can see the future when you're looking at me
Tell me when the world slows down 'cause I'm stuck in the moment
That you turned around, begging God don't let her
Get away, tell me what it takes
I could love you for forever and forever and forever and a day

(I could love you forever
Ooh-ooh-ooh)

So I'll roll the dice on my whole life
It's all yours if you want it
No way to stop this falling now
I'll reach around and put my hands
Into your denim pockets
And whisper when the moon comes out
It kinda sorta feels like

You belong, right here in the middle
Of my tattooed arms, I could wait forever
And a day just to hear you say
You can see the future when you're looking at me
World slows down 'cause I'm stuck in the moment
That you turned around, begging God don't let her
Get away, tell me what it takes
I could love you for forever and forever and forever and a day

World slows down
Turn around, begging God don't let her
Get away, tell me what it takes
I could love you for forever and forever and forever and forever and a day
