"Forever" lyrics

Didn't workout like we thought that it might
You were perfect but you were never mine
It's so different seeing things from this side
And I hope that you're alright

Cause lately you've been on the back of my mind
Didn't mean to let you down and Lord knows I tried
To be clear and precise but words cut like a knife
Hope you didn't get hurt from what I said that night

I'm sorry that you and me couldn't be forever
Be forever
But it's better to tell you how I feel now then never
Now then never
Promised to use honesty and I did
Though I didn't know you'd end up hurting like this
I'm sorry that you and me couldn't be forever
Be forever

Was it timing, were you just not my type
Were we fighting, were we nervous to try
It's so different seeing things from this side
And I hope that you're alright

Cause lately you've been on the back of my mind
Didn't mean to let you down and Lord knows I tried
To be clear and precise but words cut like a knife
It's so sharp like a knife but I used that knife

I'm sorry that you and me couldn't be forever
Be forever
But it's better to tell you how I feel now then never
Now then never
Promised to use honesty and I did
Though I didn't know you'd end up hurting like this
I'm sorry that you and me couldn't be forever
Be forever

Sorry we couldn't be forever
But it's better to tell you how I feel now then never
Now then never
Promised to use honesty and I did
Though I didn't know you'd end up hurting like this
I'm sorry that you and me couldn't be forever
Be forever
