lyrics

It's Gonna Take Forever

By Jeremy Parrish & Mychael John Thomas

It only took us twenty years for me to think
That you would spend a lifetime
Being here in love with me
But it only took you a minute or so
To tell me we were through
And it's gonna take forever to get over you

It'll take at least a week to adjust to the time change
But I don't think I'm savin' any daylight anyway
And it'll take a month to get halfway down
My list of things to do
But it's gonna take forever to get over you

It's gonna be eternity till I believe you're gone
And I'll always keep that ray of hope
That someday you'll come home
In the wink of an eye I realized
You left me with these blues
But it's gonna take forever to get over you

It takes about a half an hour to wash my car
But it only takes a second to wonder where you are
And I could spend a whole day askin' myself
If love was ever true
But it's gonna take forever to get over you

Yea I could spend a lifetime askin' myself
If love was ever true
But it's gonna take forever to get over you
It's gonna take forever to get over you
