"Forever" lyrics

I don't use a word like forever, I'm working with time
If I'm lucky, I'll grow old
And if I'm blessed, have a daughter
If I'm wise, she'll have a heart and eyes like yours
There's not enough time to love you right
But I will find you life after life
Surely I've loved you many times before
Surely I was born to love you more

Ignore the falling grains of sand
You have my whole life, my man
And in the time that I have my breath
How can I serve you best?
Surely I saw leaves will fall
Any woman worth her salt
Would risk or give anything at all
To know a love like this

I didn't see you standing there
Sometimes time ain't fair
But oh my love, oh my soul
Come in, come here

Yeah, I don't use a word like forever
A word ain't enough
Deeper than darkness, longer than light
Bolder than blood
See that flame dancing
Flicker in the wind
Does she know another fire somewhere
Also burns and dims?
