The Forever Song - luke thompson

You were laying there still in your lazy blue dress

you were lingering, longing, your mind was a mess

saying come to me babe with your eyes and your nod

as we fell to the night were we laying with God

and I wont pretend that could stand in our way

we’re more than these bones than this head full of weight

I know forever’s some place I let go

some place I remember some place that I know.

I remember that meeting, that colourful place

that whole thick direction, that thin hollow space

Where the walls were like nothing, where cold was like hot

was that you in the garden, playing with God

and I wont pretend that could stand in our way

we’re more than these bones than these walls and mistakes

I know forever’s some place I let go

some place I remember some place that I know.

I followed my heart the best that I could

I fell and have fallen but you knew that I would

it was ruined and holy the road that I trod

But looking back now was I walking with God

If life is a lesson its simple and straight

Its easy, its violent its love and its hate

but this soul and the planet were made to go on

to be lost to be born to gambling with God

and I wont pretend that could stand in our way

we’re more than these words than the things that we say

I know forever’s some place I let go

Some place I’ve forgotten but somehow still know
