George Jones
"Forever's Here To Stay"

(Buddy Cannon - Larry Bastian)

She stepped out of the Taxi, with a suitcase in her hand
And a hand bag too full for her to hold
I felt her body tremble as I took her in my arms
And she whispered, don't ever let me go.

Chorus:
ThenChorus:
The I watched her hang her
dresses up and close the closet door
And I watched her put
her satin things away
Somehow now I know she won't
be leaving anymore
I do believe forever's here to stay.

It's good to hear her foot steps just walking down the hall
Lord, I wondered would I hear those sounds again
We're picking up the pieces, and putting away the past
We've got a lot of broken dreams to mend.

Chorus:
I watched her hang her
dresses up and close the closet door
And I watched her put
her satin things away
Somehow now I know she won't
be leaving anymore
I do believe forever's here to stay.

I do believe forever's here to stay...
