Matchbox Twenty – Forever December lyrics

Rob thomas, jay stanley, brian yale and john goff

I reach within my isolation, I harbor it, I honor it
You say you'd like to see me closer, of course you would, you have no choice

And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me
And I laugh at the people that I can't be all their lives silly pictures

Chorus:
Hey now now now, hey now hey baby
Baby's getting older, baby's getting older
Hey now now now, hey now hey baby
The tide is turning, turning us away

You build the wall I'll build the fountain, we'll wrestle it, we'll conquer it
I think we'll live to see the mountain, of course we will we have no choice

And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me
And I laugh at the people that I can't be all their lives silly pictures

Repeat chorus

(one version)
And I can remember forever december
The center of dying, the heart of the pain
The rose in the bottle, the thorns in the bottom
The stars surround me, the cold astounds me

And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me
And I laugh at the people that I can't be all their lives pretty pictures

(another version)

And it won't take long, we both knew this
Well I wasn't quite prepared
For my center of dying, the heart of your pain
All my words get lost and I can't speak
Got my head stripped down, well I get weak
And the words fall out like forever december
But soon it won't matter 'cause she won't mean nothin'



Repeat chorus x3
