Forever After All Luke Combs A cold beer’s got 12 ounces A good truck’s got maybe three hundred thousand You only get so much until it’s gone Duracells in a Maglite A needle drop on a 45 Are the kinda things that only last so long When the new wears off, and they get to getting old Sooner or later, time’s gonna take its toll They say nothing lasts forever But they ain’t seen us together Or the way the moonlight dances in your eyes Just a T-shirt in the kitchen With no makeup and a million Other things that I could look at my whole life A love like that makes a man have second thoughts Maybe some things last forever after all FM station on the outskirts Blue jeans after years of shift work All fading out like I always knew they would The strings on this guitar The first love lost on a young heart Those things are gonna break after the getting’s good ’Cause the new wears off and they get to getting old Yeah, sooner or later, time’s gonna take its toll They say nothing lasts forever But they ain’t seen us together Or the way the moonlight dances in your eyes Just a T-shirt in the kitchen With no makeup and a million Other things that I could look at my whole life A love like that makes a man have second thoughts Maybe some things last forever after all Well, they say nothing lasts forever But they ain’t seen us together Or the way the moonlight dances in your eyes And I know there’ll be that moment The good Lord calls one of us home and One won’t have the other by their side But heaven knows that that won’t last too long Maybe some things last forever after all After all Background “Forever After All,” which Combs wrote for his deluxe album “What You See Ain’t Always What You Get,” is all about eternal and unconditional love. The singer remains true to his country roots by singing about the embodiment of being a good man, how to love a woman right and embracing blue-grass and honky-tonk melodies. He does not need the flirty lyrics or synthetic beats, as his hoarse and timeless voice is more than enough compensation. |
