Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Who am I to tell her?
Who am I to play God?
Who am I to think I can go it alone?
Somethin' tells me, girl, this is bringin' you down
Somethin' tells me, girl, this is bringin' you down
[Verse 2]
We've been through some changes
Always seem to hold on
Lately it feels like you can't take anymore
Somethin' tells me, girl, this is bringin' you down
Somethin' tells me, girl, this is bringin' you down
[Verse 3]
Forever my friend, forever my love
Forever the woman that I'm thinkin' of
I just think if we keep our hearts together
I just think if we build on this trust that we have for one another
Maybe we can make this last a lifetime
[Verse 4]
Who am I to tell her?
Who am I to play God?
I don't know just what's for real anymore
Somethin' tells me, girl, this is bringin' you down
Somethin' tells me, girl, this is bringin' you down
[Verse 5]
Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right
Maybe it's the last thing you wanna hear me say
I just think if we keep our hearts together
I just think if we build on this trust that we have for one another
Maybe we can make this last a lifetime
[Verse 6]
Forever my friend, forever my love
Forever the woman that I'm thinkin' of
I just think if we keep our hearts together
I just think if we build on this trust that we have for one another
Maybe we can make this last a lifetime
