10. Forever Is a Long Time (4:31)
Today I read in a book that some are meant
to live forever
There's also a nightmare where our dying
has no end
If I let my will surrender and my flesh be crucified
In his name my sins will be sublime
Forever is a long long time
It's said love is a gift that's given if we're
true believers
Just make your body and your sold his receivers
In this world those golden rules
May seem like they're made for fools
Puppets on a string that blessing can bring
Forever is a long long time
Forever is a long long time
But now the wine has turned sour after all these
years of fighting
So many wars but still his kingdom is not striking
Pray for your enemy
And love without agony
Always ready for his day to come
Forever is a long long time
Forever is a long time
to live forever
There's also a nightmare where our dying
has no end
If I let my will surrender and my flesh be crucified
In his name my sins will be sublime
Forever is a long long time
It's said love is a gift that's given if we're
true believers
Just make your body and your sold his receivers
In this world those golden rules
May seem like they're made for fools
Puppets on a string that blessing can bring
Forever is a long long time
Forever is a long long time
But now the wine has turned sour after all these
years of fighting
So many wars but still his kingdom is not striking
Pray for your enemy
And love without agony
Always ready for his day to come
Forever is a long long time
Forever is a long time
