Eternity Lyrics
[Verse 1: Robbie Williams]
Close your eyes so you don't fear them
They don't need to see you cry
I can't promise I will heal you
But if you want to I will try
[Pre-Chorus: Robbie Williams]
I'll sing this summer serenade
The past is done
We've been betrayed
It's true
Someone said the truth will out
I believe without a doubt, in you
[Chorus: Robbie Williams]
You were there for summer dreaming
And you gave me what I need
And I hope you find your freedom
For eternity...
For eternity
[Verse 2: Robbie Williams]
Yesterday when you were walking
We talked about your mum and dad
What they did that made you happy
What they did that made you sad
Close your eyes so you don't fear them
They don't need to see you cry
I can't promise I will heal you
But if you want to I will try
[Pre-Chorus: Robbie Williams]
I'll sing this summer serenade
The past is done
We've been betrayed
It's true
Someone said the truth will out
I believe without a doubt, in you
[Chorus: Robbie Williams]
You were there for summer dreaming
And you gave me what I need
And I hope you find your freedom
For eternity...
For eternity
[Verse 2: Robbie Williams]
Yesterday when you were walking
We talked about your mum and dad
What they did that made you happy
What they did that made you sad
[Pre-Chorus: Robbie Williams]
We sat and watched the sun go down
Picked a star before we lost the moon
Youth is wasted on the young
Before you know it's come and gone, too soon
[Chorus: Robbie Williams]
You were there for summer dreaming
And you gave me what I need
And I hope you find your freedom
For eternity
For eternity
For eternity
[Pre-Chorus: Robbie Williams]
I'll sing this summer serenade
The past is done
We've been betrayed
It's true
Youth is wasted on the young
Before you know it's come and gone, too soon
[Chorus: Robbie Williams]
You were there for summer dreaming
And you are a friend indeed
And I hope you find your freedom
For eternity
We sat and watched the sun go down
Picked a star before we lost the moon
Youth is wasted on the young
Before you know it's come and gone, too soon
[Chorus: Robbie Williams]
You were there for summer dreaming
And you gave me what I need
And I hope you find your freedom
For eternity
For eternity
For eternity
[Pre-Chorus: Robbie Williams]
I'll sing this summer serenade
The past is done
We've been betrayed
It's true
Youth is wasted on the young
Before you know it's come and gone, too soon
[Chorus: Robbie Williams]
You were there for summer dreaming
And you are a friend indeed
And I hope you find your freedom
For eternity
You were there for summer dreaming
And you are a friend indeed
And I know you'll find your freedom
Eventually
For eternity
For eternity
And you are a friend indeed
And I know you'll find your freedom
Eventually
For eternity
For eternity
