Who Wants To Live Forever
(Brian May)
- There's no time for us
- There's no place for us
- What is this thing that builds our dreams yet slips away from us
Who wants to live forever
- Who wants to live forever....?
There's no chance for us
- It's all decided for us
- This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us
Who wants to live forever
- Who wants to live forever?
Who dares to love forever?
- When love must die
But touch my tears with your lips
- Touch my world with your fingertips
- And we can have forever
- And we can love forever
- Forever is our today
- Who wants to live forever
- Who wants to live forever?
- Forever is our today
Who waits forever anyway?
