Analysis of Forever Never



If I knew forever, meant never with you

I would have never, dreamt about forever with you

And if I knew my love, meant nothing to you

I would have never, loved with my forever for you

And if I knew we, meant you and me separately to you

I would have never, united my me forever with you

If I know risking forever, is something I never want to do

Then you can stay forever in the land of never

Because one day I will find forever

And I know my forever will never be with you
