Forever isn't long enough

[Verse 1]
By the Nile where the night stays warm
Your name’s carved in my pulse and bone
Pharaohs sleep with their crowns and thrones
But I only bow when you pull me close
Time was built for lesser gods
Sand slips through, but we do not
If forever’s all they’ve got to give
It still won’t hold us, not even a bit

[Pre-Chorus]
Read my fate in the stars above
Even Ra can’t burn away this love
Write your name in hieroglyphs
Every life, I’ll come back just for this
For you

[Chorus]
Forever isn’t long enough
Not when your soul fits mine like this
Break every law, defy the dust
I’ll choose you past the end of time
Let em judge, let em curse our names
We outlive gods, we outlast graves
If eternity’s the final test
Forever isn’t long enough for this

[Verse 2]
Anubis weighs my heart tonight
It’s heavy with you, and damn, that’s right
Mummified in gold and thread
Still wake whisperin what you have said
We don’t need heaven, don’t need rules
I’d haunt the world just to get to you
Every death’s just a door we pass
I’ll take your hand—walk straight back

[Pre-Chorus]
Ink our vows in sacred flame
Even the afterlife knows my name
If the universe has an end
I’ll still be loving you way past then

[Chorus]
Forever isn’t long enough
Not when your soul fits mine like this
Break every law, defy the dust
I’d choose you past the end of time
Let em judge, let em curse our names
We outlive gods, we outlast graves
If eternity’s the final test
Forever isn’t long enough for this

[Bridge]
When the sun god rests his eyes
When the stars fall out the sky
When the last word’s finally said
I’ll still want you—again and again
again And again
again And again

[Instrumental]

[Final Chorus / Outro]
So bury me deep, wrap me in gold
Write our story till time grows old
If the end comes calling my bluff
I’ll say it twice—say it loud enough
Forever isn’t long enough
(Forever isn't long enough)
Forever isn’t long enough
