Forever Everyday

I knew this kid, his name was Michael
He was only four years old
We sat on a rock and started talkin'
And he told me things I didn’t know
He said yesterday he was an Indian
And how he played with buffalo
Well, I got a sense that he had been there
And he made me really wanna go Chorus: Remember waitin’all year for December
Thought God was cryin’when it rained
And that the stars were fireflies
Dreams were real and big as life
It was forever everyday
I was tuckin’in my little girl
She held my hand and we said a prayer
I prayed, «Bless Grandma with the angels.»
And she said, «Hey Mom, she’s standin’over there.»
Well, I couldn’t see her but I don’t doubt it Maybe 'cause I’m older and less wise
What if Heaven’s all around us But only seen through children’s eyes
(Repeat Chorus)
They say when you’re old you’re a child again
But do we have to wait 'till then
(Repeat Chorus)
Forever
