Lyrics
You’re climbing mountains, I’m on a hill
You’re always running I’m standing still
You live for the moment, no future no past
I may be a fool to love by the rules and want it to last
If you ever have forever in mind
I’ll be here and easy to find
If your heart isn’t ready to lay down with mine
If you ever have forever in mind
The music has ended still you want to dance
I know that feeling, I can’t take that chance
You live for the moment no future no past
I may be a fool to love by the rules, I want it to last
If you ever have forever in mind
I’ll be here and easy to find
If your heart isn’t ready to lay down with mine
If you ever have forever in mind
