Back to Forever
Lyrics
Intro
Oh oh oh
Oh oh
These days everybody moving too fast
Swiping through forever like it never lasts
But I still believe in something old-school
Yeah
Verse 1
Look
Grandma and Grandpa stayed together through the weather
Didn't throw it all away when life wasn't getting better
Now it is all notifications and hearts on a screen
People chasing perfect pictures instead of building a dream
Everybody wants a fairytale nobody wants the fight
Nobody wants the darkness everybody wants the light
But love is not diamonds and flowers or trends
It is choosing that same person over and over again
Maybe I am old-fashioned
Maybe that is true
But I would rather have forever than somebody new
Pre-Chorus
Cause I do not want a love that is gone tomorrow
I do not want a heart that is borrowed
I want somebody who stays when the world gets cold
And I do not need perfection baby
Just somebody who can save me
When we are getting older
Chorus
Take me back to real love
Back when forever meant forever
When two hearts stayed together
Take me back to old-school nights
Slow dancing under street lights
Holding on through the hard times
Everybody searching but they do not know what they are looking for
Take me back
Take me back
To real love
Verse 2
Remember when a promise was a promise not a phase
When people worked through problems instead of walking away
Now everybody has got an exit plan in their pocket
Ready to run the second that the pressure starts to lock in
Maybe that is why hearts keep breaking
Maybe that is why trust keeps fading
Love is not found it is created
Built brick by brick when both people stay committed
I know it is not easy
Never said it would be
But the greatest things in life were never free
Pre-Chorus
Cause I do not want a love that is gone tomorrow
I do not want a heart that is borrowed
I want somebody who stays when the world gets cold
And I do not need perfection baby
Just somebody who can save me
When we are getting older
Chorus
Take me back to real love
Back when forever meant forever
When two hearts stayed together
Take me back to old-school nights
Slow dancing under street lights
Holding on through the hard times
Everybody searching but they do not know what they are looking for
Take me back
Take me back
To real love
Bridge
Maybe we are not too late
Maybe true love still waits
For somebody willing to stay
Maybe forever still exists
Maybe it is hidden in a kiss
Between two hearts that never quit
Verse 3
So here is to the couples still fighting for forever
Still holding each other through every stormy weather
Cause one day when the years move on
The memories you build become the reason you stay strong
Chorus
Take me back to real love
Back when forever meant forever
When two hearts stayed together
Take me back to old-school nights
Slow dancing under street lights
Holding on through the hard times
Through every season through every scar
Take me back
Take me back
To real love
