Sarah Brightman -- Who wants to live forever
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, .....?
Now 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, .....?
Who waits forever anyway?
Music and lyrics: Brian May From: Timeless (1997). Source of the lyrics: thanks to Armands Brants (armands.brants@dati.lv). Chris Dias (John.Dias@b2.wpafb.af.mil) wrote me the following things concerning the background of this magnificent song. It is a song that was part of the soundtrack to the movie "Hilander" (along with other Queen songs) and can be found on the album "A Kind of Magic" by Queen (1986). That writing credit in the CD booklet of "Timeless" goes only to Brian May of Queen is a little perplexing ... The album credits Queen and David Richards with producing (writing) the song. An instrumental version of the song can also be found on "A Kind of Magic" called Forever. It was also performed at the Freddie Mercury tribute concert by Seal.
