I met you on a summer day
So many years ago
I knew right then you were the one
We let the feeling grow
We talked about forever
And we made a lifetime plan
You would always be my woman
I would always be your man

Now I’m looking
At your photograph
And trying not to cry
But the tears well up inside me
And there’s something in my eye
And I wish that you were here again
To chase away the pain
But forever’s come and gone
And there’s no way to stop the rain

What do you do when the music ends?
When forever’s come and gone?
When the life you knew has vanished?
And there’s nowhere you belong?
Can you pick up all the pieces?
Make a plan to carry on?

When it seems there’s no tomorrow
There’s no music to your song
Forever’s just a memory
Of what was you and me
But the world is still revolving
And I wonder what will be

Now I’m looking at your photograph
And trying not to cry
But the tears well up inside me
And there’s something in my eye
And I wish that you were here again
To chase away the pain
But forever’s come and gone
And there’s no way to stop the rain
