Patience, you say there's time enough
I know time ain't moved by love

Let's not pretend we'll live forever
Like in some old soul song
Let's not take us for granted
'Cause some day, we'll be gone

Green eyes, you get me through these nights
Oh, I, I'll never leave your side

So let's not pretend we'll live forever
'Cause I'm barely hanging on
And don't take me for granted
One day, I'll be gone

Darling, don't be afraid
I loved you before, I will love you again
In a place before all this came
I knew your name
So darling, don't be afraid
I loved you before, I will love you again
In a place before all this came
I knew your name

So let's not pretend we'll live forever
We both know time rages on
And I won't take you for granted
And one day, we'll be gone
