And Ever And Ever

I was asked by a man sitting at the bus stop
If you could have one power, what would it be?

I replied I wish that I could make all of time stop
That way everything would stay as I see.

I can feel the earth start to tremble
And the waves are crushing the shore

I was told that our soul is just a thimble
It only protects us from our core.

So... follow me down to the place where things stay still
And where people have no will

The world is still beautiful
If only I were in control.

I would save everything as it is...
We could stay like this...

Frozen in time, forever.
