Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Always and forever is forever young
Your shadow on the pavement, the dark side of the sun
Got to dream the dream all over and sleep it tight
You don't wanna sing the blues in black and white
[Verse 2]
And it's hope that springs eternal for everyone
If it ain't broke then break it, oh, the damage done
[Verse 3]
Try and love somebody
Just wanna love somebody right now
There's just no pleasin' me
Try and love somebody
Just wanna love somebody right now
Lady, lay your love on me
[Verse 4]
Violet in the rainbow just melts away
There's not enough minutes in the hour, or hours in the day
A song played in a circle that never skips a beat
A stranger, in a country, that I have yet to meet
[Verse 5]
And it's hope that springs eternal for everyone
Your lifetime in a second, oh, the damage done
[Verse 6]
Tryin' to love somebody
Just wanna love somebody right now
Guess there's just no pleasin' me
I wanna love somebody
Just wanna love somebody right now
Lady, lay your love on me
[Verse 7]
It'll come in your sweet time, Lord
I've just gotta let you in
The blind leadin' the blind, Lord
Gettin' underneath your skin
I can feel you in the silence, sayin', "Let forever be"
Love, only love, will set you free
[Verse 8]
I wanna love somebody
I wanna love somebody right now
There's just no pleasin' me
I wanna love somebody
Just wanna love somebody right now
Lady, lay your love on me
[Verse 9]
It'll come in your sweet time, Lord
I've just gotta let you in
The blind leadin' the blind, Lord
Gettin' underneath your skin
I can feel you in the silence, sayin' let forever be
Love, and only love, will set you free
