Send "Forever and Ever Amen" Ringtone to Cell

Everybody knows you don't get what you planned
Everybody runs away from what they don't understand
Everybody hides away the guilt of thier youth
And everybody wonders why no one ever tells the truth

Everybody knows that everybody wants
And everybody has thier ghosts that emptiness that haunts
When everybody adds it up they've lost more than they've won
And everybody wishes they wereb't just like everyone

Forever and ever amen
Forever and ever amen
Forever and ever amen
Forever and ever amen...

    General Comment:The verses show the common thoughts and contemplations of human nature. We all wonder why people lie, we all know that the world is cruel, and we all know we have things in life that will stay with us til the day we die. Forever and Ever amen is right. It never changes

    This line just gives me chills everytime.
    You know, I love OTH, it's my favorite show and alot of people knock it and crack on it, but I'll tell you this.
    There has been no greater music than the music OTH has opened up to America.

    I love 8mm.

    And everybody wonders why no one ever tells the truth

    And everybody has their ghosts, that emptiness that haunts
    When everybody adds it up they've lost more than they've won
    And everybody wishes they weren't just like everyone

    Forever and ever amen
    Forever and ever amen
    Forever and ever amen
    Forever and ever amen

    Forever and ever amen
    Forever and ever amen
    Forever and ever amen
    Forever and ever amen

    Forever and ever amen
    Forever and ever amen
    Forever and ever amen
    Forever and ever amen

    General Comment:I believe that the last line before the repeated lines of "Forever and ever amen" is "Any everybody wishes they WERE just like everyone"
    Anyway, it is an amazing song with beautiful lyrics that are so true. I first hear it on One Tree Hill as well and loved it right away. It is one of my favourite songs. I love the message behind it. :)
