[Verse 1] I woke up with your hand tucked underneath my own Coffee on the counter, morning coming slow We went to have our breakfast at the local eatery Life was predictable not some great mystery We’ve walked the same old hallway bare Moved the chairs and changed the paint But every morning, there you are And every morning, I still thank fate [Chorus] I said I’d love you forever when I married you Back when forever sounded like all a heart could ever do. Now if there’s a morning after forever ends I want that day with you, my friend And if there’s one more after that, I want that one too Forever was the promise I made when I was young and true But after all these years, I know what love can do Forever wouldn’t be enough with you [Verse 2] We talk beside the kitchen sink when supper’s running late You hum a song we both know, while we sit and wait The miles roll by on country roads, your fingers find my hand You tell an old story, I smile before the ending lands You know the words I’m reaching for I know the look you’re about to give After all the life we’ve made together You’re the reason I still want to live [Chorus] I said I’d love you forever when I married you Back when forever sounded like all a heart could ever do Now if there’s a morning after forever ends I want that day with you, my friend And if there’s one more after that, I want that one too Forever was the promise I made when I was young and true But after all these years, I know what love can do Forever wouldn’t be enough with you [Verse 3] Someday our hair will silver up, our steps will lose their speed The faces in the mirror may look less like the ones we used to be But I won’t fear the years ahead, or what they ask us to become Every wrinkle is a year I got to wake up next to you, my love [Bridge] I don’t know what comes beyond this life Or where the final road may end But if there’s anything past forever I hope you’re waiting there again And I’ll come running, just as eager As the first time you said my name With every day we’ve ever shared Your love still feels the same. [Final Chorus] I said I’d love you forever when I married you Back when forever sounded like all a heart could ever do Now if there’s a morning after forever ends I want that day with you again And if there’s one more after that, I want that one too Forever was the promise I made when I was young and true But after all these years, I know what love can do Forever wouldn’t be enough with you No, forever wouldn’t be enough with you
