Etta James — A Lover is Forever

[Verse 1] I think I understand The reason you won't stay with me You think a ring upon your hand Will solve your insecurity So go ahead and play your games If that's what you must do Nothing here remains the same But the way I feel for you [Pre-Chorus] I can watch you walk away And I know I'll get by And I know just what to say But honey, I can't tell a lie [Chorus] Figure out what you must do Because you think you're so damn clever You can marry anytime you want But a lover is forever [Instrumental Break] [Pre-Chorus] I can watch you walk away And I know I'll get by And I know just what to say But honey, I can't tell a lie [Chorus] Figure out what you must do Because you think you're so damn clever You can marry anytime you want But a lover is forever [Outro] You can marry anytime you want But a lover is forever
