Say, I may be gone today
I may be going tomorrow
But do not fear
My darling now I'm here
What are you saying pray
What are you trying to tell me
You will stay here
Forever and a year
Say, can you see them there
Those darkened clouds in the distance
So close to you
We ought to go my dear
What are you saying pray
There's only bright skies about us
Just look away
Just turn the other way
A drop of rain I swear
I felt upon my forehead
Why is it now
I cannot wipe my brow
Twas not a drop of rain
And now your hands, I am holding
It was a tear
Forever and a year
Forever and a year
Forever and a year
