Red Hot Chili Peppers — Never Is a Long Time

[Verse 1] Well, If I stall at all or hesitate The world of always never seems to wait A comedy that could be so divine Never is a long time A shadow born to steal the light of day You woke me up and said, "come on, let’s play" Well now I know this never has its way [Chorus] You are, you are, the star I say From far, from far, from far away The laws that cause it all to stay By you, by you, by you, by you, for you, I do [Verse 2] I thought I'd done it all, I thought I knew But nothing ever looked as clear as you Now every never that I knew was fine But never is a long time Now I share this feeling with my dad Stolen goods aren't always half that bad A never that will always [Chorus] You are, you are, the star I say From far, from far, from far away The law that caused it all to stay By you, by you, by you, by you [Bridge] The faded piping on your dress Will always have its place, I guess By you, by you A common love that we can bless The pleasure of my child’s best Golden Books and tenderness Have rescued me from emptiness [Outro] You are, you are, the star I say From far, from far, from far away The laws that cause it all to stay You are, you are, the star I say From far, from far, from far away The laws that cause it all It all, it all, it all, it all, it all to stay
