Forever
Mariah Carey · Greatest Hits [2001]
Our time is through
Still I burn on and on
All of my life
Only for you
From now until forever
And ever my darling
Forever
You will always be the only one
You will always be the only one..
As long as I shall live
I'll hold you dear
And I will reminisce of our love
All through the years
From now until forever
And ever my darling
Forever
You will always be the only one, yes
You will always be the only one..
If you should ever need me
Unfailingly I will return to your arms
And unburden your heart
And if you should remember
That we belong together
Never be ashamed
Call my name
Tell me I'm the one you treasure
Forever
And ever, my darling
Forever
You, you will always be the only one..
Forever
