Lee Ann Womack Lyrics
"Forever Everyday"

I knew this kid, his name was Michael
He was only four years old
We sat on a rock and started talkin'
And he told me things I didn't know
He said, yesterday he was an Indian
And how he played with buffalo
Well, I got a sense that he had been there
And he made me really want to go

Remember waiting all year for December
Thought God was crying when it rained
And that the stars were fireflies
Dreams were real and big as life
It was forever, everyday

I was tuckin' in my little girl
She held my hand and we said a prayer
I prayed, "Bless Grandma with the angels"
And she said, "Hey Mom, she's standin' over there"
Well, I couldn't see her but I don't doubt it
Maybe 'coz I'm older and less wise
What if Heaven's all around us
But only seen through children's eyes

Remember waiting all year for December
Thought God was crying when it rained
And that the stars were fireflies
Dreams were real and big as life
It was forever, everyday

They say when you're older, you're a child again
But do we have to wait till then?

Remember waiting all year for December
Thought God was crying when it rained
And that the stars were fireflies
Dreams were real and big as life
It was forever, everyday

Forever
Knew this kid, his name was Michael
