Forever

She walks down to the river

Says Lord help me out of this mess

I got 750 dollars

And it's time for a new address

Someplace a little safer

Far from all his craziness

Cause you know sometimes forever's

Just a little too long

I say it's a little too long

She says eighteen when we married

I meant every single word I said

Forgive me Lord for leaving

And taking that gun out from underneath our bed

I'd throw it in the water

But that man's got the devil all up inside of his head

And you know sometimes forever's

Just a little too long

I say it's a little too long

Don't you know that sometimes forever's

Just a little too long

I say it's a little too long

Love ain't supposed to hurt so much

And the days aren't meant to drag on and on

And if I didn't care about what tomorrow might bring

Then I wouldn't be gone

I wouldn't be gone

But you know that sometimes forever's

Just a little too long

I say it's a little too long

She wades out in the water

To wash away her sins

She don't care about tomorrow

She just gone she never coming back again
