Forever

I know I've had you troubled

And I know I've seared your mind

But you know that I love you

And that our love's not blind

And sure, my dreams lie with you

But I've many more besides

And if I can't see them through

Our love will slowly die

So if you doubt for the time that you're spending

And if you doubt for the love in your heart

Think of London and the girl you're returning

And the days you defend will turn to gold

So love with your eyes

Love with your mind

Love with you

Dare I stay forever

Do it for yourself

Do it for the girl

Do it for you

Dare I stay forever

And I've known pious women

Who have led such secret lives

Shameless in the dark

So shameful in the light

And you may not be pious

And I may not be saved

But we could live quite happily

And quietly unfazed

So if you doubt for the time that you're spending

And if you doubt for the love in your heart

Think of London and the girl you're returning

And the days you defend will turn to gold

So love with your eyes

Love with your mind

Love with you

Dare I stay forever

Do it for yourself

Do it for the girl

Do it for you

Dare I stay forever

I was dreaming of the Liffey

I was thinking of the Thames

And now the east river flows by to the same end

Are we too sentimental to not look back and stare

So love with your eyes

Love with your mind

Love with you

Dare I stay forever

Do it for yourself

Do it for the girl

Do it for you

Dare I stay forever
