I still recall the morning
When we said our last goodbye
The way it felt to hold you
Still lingered on my mind
I wish I would have spoken
Everything I felt inside
Now our hearts are broken
And there's no excuse for why
And I suppose I should have mentioned this
Before I had to fly
'Cause never and forever
Are the same amount of time

What words could I have told you?
What things might I have said?
Now I'll never hold you
I held those words instead
And hearts become so fragile
When they're so far away
And all that really mattered
Got lost along the way
They say absence makes the heart grow
Mine is swollen by the sting
'Cause never and forever
Are exactly the same thing

They both go on and on and on
As far as we can see
Forever's much too long
For this to never be
Now there's nothing left for you
And there's nothing left for me

I never asked you what you wanted
But you told me you were fine
I always did believe you
Guess I shouldn't have this time
You know I would have left that morning
I would have drove into the night
To hold you in my arms again
To start a brand new life
I suppose I should have mentioned this
While I had you on the line
'Cause never and forever
Are the same amount of time

They're the same
They're the same
Never and forever
Are the same amount of time
They're the same
They're the same
Never and forever
Are the same amount of time...
