Forever and a Day

By Wes Davis

 

In my chamber by the garden way

The muse of love has come to play

In light and shadow, in the evening song

In tears of passion held so long

 

Chorus:

You say this dream won’t last forever

But what’s forever anyway?

What life we have is in this moment

No one can ever take away

Not in forever and a day

 

See her dancing in the laughing rain

With none to lose and all to gain

She speaks of freedom, but without a word

The voice of caution goes unheard

 

Repeat chorus

 

Bridge (repeated in a round):

Light and shadow, tears of passion

In the room by the garden way

Won’t you stay with me in this moment

That nobody can take away…
