Ever lyrics

Intro riff (also used with verses):
D#5     A#/D    G#/C    C#5  (x2)

D#5        A#/D           G#/C             C#5
we hit the highway in the shimmer glare of summer
  D#5          A#/D           G#/C            C#5
  and past the window all the trees flew by behind her
D#5           A#/D       G#/C       C#5
she tuned the radio `til music was around us
  D#5       A#/D           G#/C             C#5
  a rushing calm around my heart I knew had found us

        G
        it feels so good to me
          G#5
          I have to make you see
         
                D#5           A#5  G5      G#5
                why does this ever have to end?
                  D#5       A#5        G5      G#5
                  I know commitment is not the trend
                D#5        A#5           G5   G#5
                don`t misunderstand what I intend
                  D#5             A#5     G5      G#5
                  when I say this doesn`t have to end

we washed the dishes knowing everything was all right
  and there together in the curtain drifting twilight
I know your laughter shouldn`t make me feel so scared
  how could I doubt you, I know how much you cared

        I hear it when you sigh
          but I still don`t know why

                why does this ever have to end?
                  why can`t I give you my heart and hand?
                I think you`re too scared to understand
                  this doesn`t ever have to end . . . go!

Interlude (x2)  :       F#5,    G#5,    A#5,    C#5;
F#5,    G#5,    A#5,    D#5!!

Main riff (x2: first with just guitar; second time, w/ bass & drums)

I see you standing by a window in the hall
  our eyes collide without a single word at all
the record asks, "will you still need me when I`m 64?"
  I can`t imagine that I wouldn`t need you more

        too many tears to cry
          I just won`t let it die

                this doesn`t ever have to end
                  life is so long and my heart won`t mend
                you are my lover, you`re my best friend 
                  but this doesn`t ever have to end

End on D#5.
