Bettysoo Forever Lyrics

First vision of her a revelation Heavens opened and shone down He's still waiting for another divine inspiration To make him sure of what he found

No one ever loved her better She longs for something different just the same Sometimes, she wonders whether She shouldn't have taken his name

Blanket of night hides the ache in their souls Two bodies huddle with love that's grown cold That old twisted cedar taps A familiar refrain on their window

She's thinking of painting the gray in her hair She looks in the closet at nothing to wear Will he notice when she starts Coming home later
This ain't no love tale like Johnny and June This ain't ever after, the fire died too soon This ain't no lullaby, no one will sleep well tonight

He's remembering that morning They fell (to their) knees and asked Will you let me love you forever?

This ain't no love tale like Johnny and June This ain't ever after, the fire died too soon This ain't no lullaby, no one will sleep well tonight

No one ever loved her better She longs for something different just the same Sometimes, she wonders whether She shouldn't have taken his name
