“Forever” was released as a standalone single in 2020.
The track is a revelatory anthem of both self-love and heartbreak, with FLETCHER explaining to Capitol Records:
This song is about knowing who ‘the one’ might be but needing to find myself before I give that person my time forever. The relation...
[Verse 1]
You told me that I'm actin' different
You told me that somethin' is missin'
I got a couple drunk kisses I still need to get out my system
You the type I wanna spend my whole life with
But not the one I'll spent tonight with
We're just in two different places, you gotta face it
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna be young and party (Oh)
Be dumb and never feel sorry (Oh)
Become a freak with my body
I wanna be young and party (Oh)
I'm tired of taking my phone out (Oh)
Tell you I'm not comin' home now
[Chorus]
Think I could love you forever and ever and ever and ever
But don't think we should be together, together, together right now
I think I could love you forever and ever and ever and ever (And ever and ever)
As long forever and ever and ever and ever and ever don't start right now
[Verse 2]
You know I think that you're perfect
But I know why it's not workin'
You've always had the worst timing
And I've had a thing for all-nighters
Drinkin' and smokin' and kissin' my friends
I'll wake up and do it again
I say that I'm guilty and do it again, again, again, again
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna be young and party (Oh)
Be dumb and never feel sorry (Oh)
Become a freak with my body
I wanna be young and party (Oh)
I'm tired of taking my phone out (Oh)
Tell you I'm not comin' home now
[Chorus]
I think I could love you forever and ever and ever and ever (Uh, ever)
But don't think we should be together, together, together right now
I think I could love you forever and ever and ever and ever (And ever and ever)
As long forever and ever and ever and ever and ever don't start right now
[Bridge]
Oh-oh, if I could love you, then I would love you
I'm lettin' go and even though it hurts, ah
If I could love you, and God, I want to
But think I need to learn to love me first
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna be young and party
Be dumb and never feel sorry
Become a freak with my body
I wanna be young and party
I'm tired of taking my phone out
Tell you I'm not comin' home now
[Outro]
I think I could love you forever and ever and ever and ever
But don't think we should be together (Uh)
I think I could love you forever (And ever and ever and ever)
But don't think we should be together (Together, together) right now
I think I could love you forever (And ever and ever and ever)
As long forever and ever and ever and ever and ever don't start right now
Forever was written by Amy Allen & FLETCHER & Kinetics & One Love & Jason Evigan & Gian Stone.
Forever was produced by Gian Stone & Jason Evigan.
A March 2020 Rolling Stone article quotes FLETCHER saying:
The song is about, feeling like, you know, found a really perfect person but kinda wishing that you could pause for some time just to get to know myself without the safety net of an other human being. And that’s something that’s way more ea...
