FOREVER
(Doesn't Mean What It Used To)

Man buys ring, and every day,
A thousand hearts get thrown away
Some with courage try to stay,
And love again, another day.

(She said:)
"Forever doesn't mean what it used to,
Forsaking all others doesn't mean what you think,
It's funny what lovers get used to,
Baby, sweet baby, don't think,
Baby, sweet baby, don't think."

Man takes woman, by the hand,
Hopes she'll help him understand,
What it takes to be her man,
What it takes to be her friend.

(She said:)
"Forever doesn't mean what it used to,
Forsaking all others doesn't mean what you think,
It's funny what lovers get used to,
Baby, sweet baby, don't think,
Baby, sweet baby, don't think."

Man should try to live each day,
To live and learn, and love that way,
But the water's cold and grey,
When the bridge is pulled away,
When the bridge is pulled away.

(She said:)
"Forever doesn't mean what it used to,
Forsaking all others doesn't mean what you think,
It's funny what lovers get used to,
Baby, sweet baby, don't think,
Baby, sweet baby, don't think."
