I don't want to stay forever
Because then how will I say goodbye?
I don't want to say forever
Because then how will I know they're lies?

Even after all the memories we've built,
After all the tears we have spilt
Dance across the years
I wish I had no fears...

I don't want to stay forever
Because I don't know how to say goodbye
I don't want to say forever
Because I can't cover up the lies

I guess I will just cover up my eyes
Sit and watch as the days pass me by
There is no time to cry
Please don't dare ask why

Yeah I wish I knew
Which way the winds of destiny blew
Flowers bloom somewhere new
But time stood still where all birds flew

Roses and their thorns grip around me
It is a danger to keep you in this garden
Moss and horns peek out of the misted ebony
I don't want you to become a stranger
But my excuses you may never pardon

I don't want to stay forever
Because I don't know how to say goodbye
I don't want to say forever
Because I don't want to fall for lies
