Thomas, B.J. - What's Forever For Lyrics
I've been lookin' at people
And how they change with the times
And lately all I've been seein' are people
Throwin' love away and losing their minds
'Cause I can't understand why
All these lovers keep hurtin' each other
When love is so hard to come by
So what's the glory in living?
Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore?
And if love never lasts forever
Tell me what's forever for?
I've been listenin' to people
And it's not my way to let them lead me astray
It's only that I want to believe
I see love-hungry people
Tryin' their best to survive
While in their hands is a dying romance
And they're not even tryin' to keep it alive
So what's the glory in living?
Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore?
And if love never lasts forever
Tell me what's forever for?
So what's the glory in living?
Doesn't anybody ever stay together anymore?
And if love never lasts forever
Tell me what's forever for?

Thomas, B.J. What's Forever For Comments
Sad but true song sung by a man with a beautiful soul and voice.
What A Wonderful Guy..!!!!! And A Beautiful Person..!!!!!.
Rafe Van Hoy wrote this song for England Dan & John Ford Coley in 1978.
Then, he sung this song in his original album “Prisoner Of The Sky” issued in 1980.
Michael Martin Murphy cover this song in 1982.
I love Rafe’s original version better !
Another fantastic song.

Keep the music alive!! There's no time limit, why can't the kids comming up enjoy and learn from it?
Recorded firstly by Anne Murray. But i loved that version.
It was originally done by England Dan & John Ford Coley in 1978.
@Filthy McNasty Thanks for pointing out my mistake. We always learn something else on here.
Bj Thomas, manteve a mesma voz e afinação. Mesmo com o passar dos anos.
He surely is one of the greatest singers of all times.
My very first concert, and I've loved his music since! This I can listen to ask day long.
Beautiful what more can you say?
amazing ... j'adore !!!
He has to have one of the most unique and original sounds and looks that there is .
Handsome man beautiful voice🤗🤗🤗🤗💖💖
i love B.J 's voice but i love Michael Martin Murphey's version way more don't get me wrong I really like BJ's music just on this one the original was best but just the same thank you for your music BJ
I'll take the original version by England Dan & John Ford Coley in 1978.
BJ Thomas is very special to me. He was 48 HOURS old when my dad was born and I've been hearing his music at home my whole life
what a fantastic song so true in life u have amazing voice bj thomas hit after hit with songs
Love this song😥
Thank you BJ I don't know if you're still living anymore I suppose you're about 76 years old there was a rumor had it that you died a long time ago perhaps 30 years ago but I am so glad to hear that you lived a lot longer than that thank you for the message of what's forever for man you are such a nice man don't know your personal life I'm sure that you had your difficulties and all that I'm not going to pry into that I have my sins two or whatever and I'm not saying you do just thank you simply thank you God bless you
THANKs. Love singer song &video.

One of the finest voices in pop music.

Thanks BJ THOMAS. God Bless you and your family . magnificent as always BJ Thomas
he does a lyric better than just about anyone out there.
I did not know he recorded this. interesting.
true to this unfortunate way! song of reflexion!
This song hits the bullseye of my heart, and brings tears to my eyes...From being there, in my past...
I'm getting to the age now where one day you have each other, you turn around and one has been called home! Say I love you every day!
I would love to add that forever is a word for where we are going to live forever and always. Now I know I will have non believers on this, but God almighty has proven himself to me so many times he has removed all doubt. I am 68 yrs. and I cannot doubt God and his son, the one who gave his life to save us from Hell Fire. There has been about 40 yrs. of trials, that is to say me trying God that has proven to me that there is no doubt a God almighty. To those who do not fully believe, try him and find out for yourself, then you will have no doubt either ! God bless and help us all ! Thanks Chris Paul for allowing me to send this statement because it is a proven fact . Trust and believe . Now if you are not whole hearted forget it becauce it will not work otherwise. God is for sure as real as it gets.
Love B. j. Thomas. Love this song. I can not imagin no one doing better on it. Thanks Chris Paul!
BJ Thomas has got one of the best voices ever!
I truly love you forever and always n with all my heart
Love this guy! Beautiful voice.

I love BJ Thomas, but with 2--count 'em--2 key changes plus a fuller overall production, I really do prefer Michael Murphey's version.
Have loved BJ Thomas' voice since I was a little girl....seems he was never too comfortable in the spotlight, but wow, what a beautiful voice! Great musical talent...wonderful memories...thank you
