"Forever Was A Little Longer" lyrics

When it came to hearts and love and dreams
You gave ours a guarantee
You said we were picture perfect for all to see
A fairy tale had nothin' on you and me

Always forever, you said I'd never
Ever watch you walk out on me, but I guess I believed

That forever was a little longer, now I'm down on my knees
Prayin' lord help me get over the pain and the memories
When you said I loved you, you were playin' the part
But I sure took it to heart and thought forever was a little longer

Everybody says where's my better half
And it's all I can do to fight the tears back
They say I can't believe say it ain't true
They swore we were the one love that would make it through

Always forever, you said I'd never
Ever watch you walk out on me, but I guess I believed

That forever was a little longer, now I'm down on my knees
Prayin' lord help me get over the pain and the memories
When you said I loved you, you were playin' the part
But I sure took it to heart and thought forever was a little longer

Can't sleep, I can't breathe, shattered dreams keep haunting me
Break down, scream out how could you do this to me

Always forever, forever, forever

Thought forever was a little longer, now I'm down on my knees
Prayin' lord help me get over the pain and the memories
When you said I loved you, you were playin' the part
But I sure took it to heart and thought forever was a little longer
Now I'm down on my knees
Thought forever was a little longer, oh please baby please
Thought forever was a little longer
