  What's Forever For Written by: Rafe Vanhoy  
  Originally performed by: Michael Martin Murphey Search for audio clips of this song  

I've been looking at people
And how they change with the times
And lately all I've been seeing are people
Throwing love away and losing their minds

Or maybe it's me that's gone crazy
'Cause I can't understand why
All these people keep hurting each other
When good love is so hard to come by

So what's the glory in living
Doesn't anybody stay together anymore
And if love never lasts forever
Tell me what's forever for

I've been listening to people
And they say love is the key
It's not my way to let them lead me astray
It's only that I want to believe

But I see love hungry people
Trying their best to survive
While in their hands is a dying romance
And they're not even trying to keep it alive

So what's the glory in living
Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore
And if love never lasts forever
Tell me what's forever for

If love never lasts forever
Tell me what's forever for

It's a sad song with pretty insightful lyrics. Emotions run high in this song; it's full of frustration and a childish perception of love. Marvelous song, if there ever was one. I love the way Billy can sound so sad, and how he manages to drag those notes out so long. Phew.

I'll bet anything that this song won't sound half as good if Billy didn't sing it. As beautiful as the music is, what really makes it good is Billy's emotion and voice that is captured in this song. It's fabulous!!

Meaningful and Touching

Billy did an awesome job with this song. Everytime I hear it I think of my parents and when they divorced. I can feel the passion in Billy's voice which gives me a feeling of longing. Why can't we all just love and never "run out" of love? Why can't it last forever, is what the words are asking.

Amazing
