"Forever And Always" lyrics

She's sitting at the table, the hours get later
He was supposed to be here
She's sure he would have called
She waits a little longer, there's no one in the driveway
No one's said they've seen him
Why is something wrong?
She looks back to the window, suddenly the phone rings
A voice says something's happened
That she should come right now
Her mind goes to December, she thinks of when he asked her
He bent down on his knees first
And he said

I want you forever; forever and always
Through the good and the bad, and the ugly
We'll grow old together, forever and always

She pulls up to the entrance, she walks right to the front desk
They lead her down a million halls
A maze that's never-ending
They talk about what happened but she can barely hear them
She tries to keep a straight face
As she walks into the room
She sits by his bedside, holds his hand too tight
They talk about the kids they're gonna have and the good life
The house on the hillside
Where they would stay

Stay there forever; forever and always
Through the good and the bad, and the ugly
We'll grow old together, and always remember
Whether rich or for poor, or for better
We'll still love each other, forever and always

Then she gets an idea and calls in the nurses
Brings up the chaplain and he says a couple verses
She borrows some rings from the couple next door
Everybody's laughing as the tears fall on the floor
She looks into his eyes, and she says

I want you forever; forever and always
Through the good and the bad, and the ugly
We'll grow old together, and always remember
Whether happy or sad or whatever
We'll still love each other, forever and always
Forever and always, forever and always

She finishes the vows but the beeps are getting too slow
His voice is almost too low
As he says, "I love you forever, forever and always
Please just remember even if I'm not there
I'll always love you, forever and always"
