Lyrics The Maccabees

The Maccabees

Forever I've Known

I'm a child to your voice

To the sound though it can eat me alive

Ten toes and ten fingers

Any sense that I've had in this life

Won't you stay a while

Kill some time

You know that I'll make it easy

And I know

Know it wouldn't be forever

Forever I've known

Nothing stays forever

Couldn't still try

I want to see you

It's not good enough to have you here in my head

Want the spray from the sea

Come on I'll make it easy

And I know

Know it wouldn't be forever

Forever I've known

Nothing stays forever

Couldn't still try

Things I've said in a rage

Can still be unsaid

Took the cold from my bones

Took the cold from my head

And I know

Know nothing stays forever

Forever I've known

Nothing stays forever

Couldn't just lie

I'm a child to your voice

And I know

Know nothing stays forever

Forever I've known

Nothing stays forever

Forever I've known
