Forever Young

It was you and me sitting in an apple tree
At the summers end we were only 17
We held on so tight that September night
Then you promised me

We're never getting older
We're never gonna be that way
Remember when I told ya
We would make it out someday
Let them say we're crazy 'cause we've already won
When you promised me we'd be forever young

I got your letter I can't seem to put it down
It makes it better to have a piece of you around
They're all just strangers their words don't mean a thing
I swear I'll die here I swear that I'd do anything
To be back again at the summer's end
When you promised me

We're never getting older
We're never gonna be that way
Remember when I told ya
We would make it out someday
Let them say we're crazy 'cause we've already won
When you promised me we'd be forever

Sooner or later times gets the best of you
I should have known better you gotta do what you gotta do
If I had me a river I'd sit and watch it run by
I'd never let it run dry I'm never gonna say goodbye

We're never getting older
We're never gonna be that way
Remember when I told ya
We would make it out someday
They still say we're crazy and I still say we won
When you promised me we'd be forever young

Forever young
Forever young
Forever young
Forever young
Forever young
