“Future”, a stand-alone single of Etham, is about the desire of spend your whole life with your lover and overcome the difficulties you both might have.
It was released on July 3, 2018 with a music video, while the acoustic version dropped one month later.
[Verse 1]
They say "Don’t rush, just overcome
And never give it up"
But that’s impossible
'Cause when we’re talking 'bout
Our love I'll never get enough
I can't forward see where this will lead
But I’m first to arrive
And I swear that I'll never leave
Yeah, my heart beats to your loyalty
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I remove the hands from time
So every second chance are wind
And even in death, you're my afterlife
[Chorus]
I just wanna make it last
I only wanna be your future
I can never, ever look back
You know I wanna be your future
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I can be blind
'Cause I'm so busy with this image in my mind
Who needs perfection
When it’s you, and only you
Who makes me feel alive
Although our days are running out
I can lift your darkest hours
I’ll take our every minute
And make it count
[Chorus]
I just wanna make it last
I only wanna be your future
I can never, ever look back
You know I wanna be your future
[Bridge]
'Cause I can't give it up
Give it up
There ain't no end to us
End to us
'Cause I can't give it up for you
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
So I can’t give it up
Give it up
There ain't no end to us
End to us
'Cause I can't give it up, for you
[Chorus]
Oh, I just wanna make it last
I only wanna be your future
I can never, ever look back
You know I wanna be your future
I just wanna make it last
I only wanna be your future
I can never, ever look back
You know I wanna be your future
