The trouble with forever
It happens rarely ever
They put it in a letter
Then say that it is treasure
The trouble with forever
It happens next to never
They promise you less error
Then leave in stormy weather
The trouble with forever
For worse or for better
At first they give you pleasure
Then the rest is only terror
The trouble with forever
It feels light as a feather
It promises only leisure
But it’s gone once there’s pressure

“But it’s gone once there is pressure” – sad but true. 😦

No one wants to put in the “work” to build and maintain a happy relationship but that’s mostly because most guys are carrying on five different relationships at a time with women…

I don’t think that women are exempt from that criticism, either. But I agree – it’s about building that foundation of a strong and happy relationship, from two people who are willing to do it.
