Hello
I've waited here for you
Everlong
Tonight
I throw myself into
And out of the red, out of her head she sang
Come down
And waste away with me
Down with me
Slow how
You wanted it to be
I'm over my head, out of her head she sang
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang
Breathe out
So I could breathe you in
Hold you in
And now
I know you've always been
Out of your head, out of my head I sang
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang
And I wonder
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
So, Dad would take the Sundays off.
And that's the only time he could ever get any rest.
And so, because we were loud on Sundays,
he'd make us hold his construction boots over our head, 'til we'd sleep.
And they were really heavy boots and I used to say,
"Dad, come on, please."
And like start crying, 'coz they're too heavy.
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang
I've waited here for you
Everlong
Tonight
I throw myself into
And out of the red, out of her head she sang
Come down
And waste away with me
Down with me
Slow how
You wanted it to be
I'm over my head, out of her head she sang
chorus
And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang
Breathe out
So I could breathe you in
Hold you in
And now
I know you've always been
Out of your head, out of my head I sang
chorus
And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
She sang
And I wonder
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
So, Dad would take the Sundays off.
And that's the only time he could ever get any rest.
And so, because we were loud on Sundays,

You've got to promise not to stop when I say when
