Never Is Forever

© 2018 Mark Cote

she said she would leave me never
but she did
can't be undid

They say the rains would never come
but they did
yes they did

so how am I to know what is for sure
when there is no cure
what one may know can turn around
the shifting ground

(chorus) Does she know
                  does she know
                  never is forever
                  when I turn my back I'm gone
                  when I turn to go I am done

The words I thought I'd never say
now I say
everyday

the thoughts of you haunt echoed halls
and faceless dolls
silent calls

so how am I to know what is for sure
when there is no cure
what one may know can turn around
the shifting ground

(chorus)
