[Verse 1]
Remember the first time I told you I love you
It was raining hard and you never heard
You sneezed and I had to say it over
“I said, I love you”, I said, and you didn't say a word
[Verse 2]
Just held your hands to my shining eyes
And I watched as the rain ran through your fingers
Held your hands to my shining eyes
And smiled as you kissed me
[Chorus 1]
“If you die”, you said, “so do I," you said
And it starts the day you make the sign
Tell me I'm forever yours and you're forever mine
Forever mine
[Chorus 2]
“If you die”, you said, “so do I," you said
And it starts the day you cross that line
Swear I will always be yours and you'll always be mine
You'll always be mine, always be mine
[Verse 3]
Remember the last time I told you I love you
It was warm and safe in our perfect world
You yawned and I had to say it over
“I said, I love you," I said, you didn't say a word
Just held your hands to your shining eyes
And I watched as the tears ran through your fingers
Held your hands to your shining eyes and cried
[Chorus 3]
“If you die," you said, “so do I," you said
But it ends the day you see how it is
There is no always forever, just this
Just this
[Chorus 4]
“If you die," you said, “so do I," you said
But it ends the day you understand
There is no if, just and
There is no if, just and
[Refrain]
