forever's just a matter of time lyrics

How in the hell did this begin?
Like some cruel game we can't seem to win
It just goes on over and over again

It took from best outta you and me
I thought we swore we'd let this love rest in peace
Am I wrong? And didn't we part as friends?

How many lifetimes must we live through?
Till we're looking through the eyes of the truth

We are joined at the soul
With a heart that don't know how to let go
And what does it mean when it don't mean a thing
When we say goodbye

But if life is unkind
And forever ain't a place we can find
We'll know how we've tried
That forever's just a matter of time

So much love and so much pain
No one to judge and no one to blame
It holds on how desperate this need that remains

We know the passion that leads us blind
'Cause the two of us are one of a kind

We are joined at the soul
With a heart that don't know how to let go
And what does it mean when it don't mean a thing
When we say goodbye

And if life is unkind
And forever ain't a place we can find
We'll know how we've tried
And that forever's just a matter of time

Time after time we stumble and fall
Past the point of no return
God knows we've given so much more than our all
To this lessons we may never learn

We are joined at the soul
With a heart that don't know how to let go
And what does it mean when it don't mean a thing
We say goodbye

And if life is unkind
And forever ain't a place we can find
We'll know how we've tried
And that forever's just a matter of time
