sitten on the patio.
watchin the moon and the stars.
here I was watching them twinkle in your eyes.
I never saw anything
so beautiful as you
chourse:
when I look into your eyes
they were all so beautiful
here we are talkin about forever
then as soon you walked out that door. my heart was broken in two.
just hurts as hell I told you before that I tried.
then I saw you in the movies
I didn't even tell you before that....i loved you and I still do
oh I still do forever and ever
till the last day of my life
chourse2x
I always will till the last day of my life
