forever and almost always

Kate Voegele

So the story goes on down
the less traveled road
ItÂ?s a variation on
the one I was told
and although itÂ?s not the same
itÂ?s awful close, yeah

in an ordinary fairy tale land
thereÂ?s a promise of a perfect happy end
and I imagine having just short of that
is better than nothing

so youÂ?ll be mine
forever and almost always
and IÂ?ll be fi ne
just love me when you can
and IÂ?ll wait patiently
IÂ?ll wake up every day
just hoping that you still care

in the corner of my mind I know too well
oh that surely even I deserve the best
but instead of leaving
I just put the issue to bed
and outta my head

oh and just when I believe
youÂ?ve changed for good
well you go and prove me wrong
just like I knew you would
when I run out of second chances
you give me that look
and youÂ?re off the hook

because youÂ?re mine
forever and almost always
and IÂ?m fine
just love me when you can
and IÂ?ll wait patiently
IÂ?ll wake up every day
just hoping that you still care

oh, what am I still doing here?
oh, itÂ?s all becoming so clear

youÂ?ll be mine
forever and almost always
it ainÂ?t right to just love me when you can
I wonÂ?t wait patiently
or wake up everyday
just hoping that youÂ?ll still care

forever and almost always
no it ainÂ?t right
to just love me when you can, baby
ainÂ?t gonna wait patiently
I wonÂ?t wake up everday
just hoping that you still care
