Now and Forever

One ordinary day, rushing through the crowd
I met a girl who stood out somehow
By chance we spoke, and time grew still
Your smile was sunrise on my windowsill

We walked through days both sweet and slow
Shared stories only hearts would know
Your laugh became my favorite sound
My soul stood still when you’re around

Nothing means more than loving you
Nothing feels right like we always do

Now and forever, I’ll stand by your side
It wasn’t chance that brought you in my life
My hand in yours, through night and day
No matter what comes, I’ll stay
Now and forever, my heart is yours to keep
Even in silence, even in sleep

Time may draw its lines on skin
But can’t erase where love begins
The years may change the way we move
But never what I feel for you

You’re every word I didn’t write
But always lived within my light
A thousand lives I’d choose again
If each one leads me back to when

If I forget the songs we shared
Remind me with the way you care
If shadows fall and voices fade
Let love be louder than the grave

Now and forever, I promise you this
A thousand days, one endless kiss
When all else changes or disappears
Know I’ll be near, through all your years
Now and forever, you are my only truth
The heart I loved since our youth

Now and forever, I’ll be your light
Through every shadow, every night
I’ll be the voice when words are few
The quiet strength inside of you
Now and forever, I’ll hold you close
The one you’ll always need the most

And when our time has reached its end
Please know you’ve been my love, my friend
For all my days, I lived for you
Now and forever… loving you
