forever and a day

Lyrics English

You feel like home
On Christmas Day
At 9 am in second grade
Or the feeling that I had the very first time that I saw the ocean
It seems so right
But I don’t know
I’ve flown this high
And crashed and burned before
And I’m tired of scraping pieces of my broken heart up off the concrete every time I fall again

But if you asked me what I’m thinking when you’re looking at me…
Oh, it kinda sorta feels like

You belong
Right here in the middle of my
Tattooed arms
I could wait forever and a day
Just to hear you say
You can see the future when you’re looking at me
Tell me when the world slows down, cause
I’m stuck the moment that you turned around
Begging God don’t let her get away
Tell me what it takes
I could love you for forever and forever and
Forever and a day

Ooo
Ooo

I’m up and down
Back and forth
I swear you’re the one
And then I’m not sure
Oh I’m black and blue from pinching on my skin thinking that I’m still dreaming
I call my Dad to hear some truth
I asked my mama how she knew she knew
And I wish that God would just spell out a yes or no up in clouds so I could know what to do

But when I’m wrapped up in your arms under the backyard starlight
Oh, it kinda sorta feels like

You belong
Right here in the middle of my
Tattooed arms
I could wait forever and a day
Just to hear you say
You can see the future when you’re looking at me
Tell me when the world slows down, cause
I’m stuck the moment that you turned around
Begging God don’t let her get away
Tell me what it takes
I could love you for forever and forever and
Forever and a day

Ooo
Ooo
Ooo
Ooo

So I’ll roll the dice on my whole life
It’s all yours if you want it
No way to stop this falling now
I’ll reach around and put my hands
Into your denim pockets
And whisper when the moon comes out
It kinda sorta feels like

You belong
Right here in the middle of my
Tattooed arms
I could wait forever and a day
Just to hear you say
You can see the future when you’re looking at me
World slow down, cause
I’m stuck the moment that you turned around
Begging God don’t let her get away
Tell me what it takes
I could love you forever and forever and
Forever and a day
World slows down
Turn around
Begging God don’t let her get away
Tell me what it takes
I could love you forever and forever and
forever and forever and a day
