This song makes me cry and I couldn’t have said it better myself. Jessica Simpson, I Wanna Love You Forever… and I do and I will, babe.
You set my soul at ease
Chased darkness out of view
Left your desperate spell on me
Say you feel it too
I know you do
I’ve got so much more to give
This can’t die, I yearn to live
Pour yourself all over me
And I’ll cherish every drop here on my knees
CHORUS:
I wanna love you forever
And this is all I’m asking of you
Ten thousand lifetimes together
Is that so much for you to do?
Cuz from the moment that I saw your face
And felt the fire in your sweet embrace
I swear I knew.
I’m gonna love you forever.
My mind fails to understand
What my heart tells me to do
And I’d give up all I have just to be with you
and that would do
I’ve always been taught to win
And I never thought I’d fall
Be at the mercy of a man
I’ve never been
Now I only want to be right where you are.
[CHORUS]
In my life I’ve learned that heaven never waits, no
Lets take this now before it’s gone like yesterday
Cuz when I’m with you there’s nowhere else
That I would ever wanna be no
I’m breathing for the next second I can feel you
Loving me … I’m gonna love

My best friend spent his 14th birthday in a bomb shelter while this was going on. It makes me sick. Do not forget. Remember what we did, and continue to do, to people all around the world.
