Matchbox Twenty - Forever December Lyrics

i reach within my isolation
i harbor it, i honor it
you say you'd like to see me closer
of course you would
you have no choice

and i cry cuz the weather has gotten to me
and i laugh at the people that i can't be cuz all their lives
are silly pictures

hey now now now hey now hey baby
baby's gettin older, baby's gettin older

you'll build the wall i'll build the fountain
we'll wrestle it, and we'll conquer it
i think we'll live to see the mountains
of course we will, we have no choice

and i cry cuz the weather has gotten to me
and i laugh at the people that i can't be cuz all their lives
are silly pictures

hey now now now hey now hey baby
baby's gettin older, baby's gettin older
hey now now now hey now hey baby
the tide is turning, don't turn me away

and it won't take long
we both knew this but i wasn't quite prepared
for my center of dying, and the heart of your pain
all my words get lost and i can't speak
got my head stripped down, well i get weak
and the words fall out like forever december
soon it will matter, she won't mean nothing

and i cry cuz the weather has gotten to me
and i laugh at the people that i can't be cuz all their lives
are pretty pictures

hey now now now hey now hey baby
baby's gettin older, baby's gettin older
hey now now now hey now hey baby
the tide is turning, don't turn me away
