"The Rest Of Forever" lyrics - RHETT AKINS

He hurt you, she hurt me
Now trust doesn't come so easily
Love isn't the fairytale
It was before

So we're careful, 'cause we're fragile
We both realize some caution is wise
But we won't really love
'Til we're not scared to hurt anymore

[Chorus:]
So I open myself to the thought
And the hope and the real and the fact it could end
But I'm taking the chance
'Cause I know if we don't then we might never find this again
And I know that we can't be alone what we might be together
So I'll give you my best for what's left of the rest of forever

You need me and I need you
Sharing again isn't easy to do
We've only been able
To count on ourselves for so long

And now taken, takes courage
And though I'm afraid it's making me brave
Seeing you struggle
To stay weak enough to be strong

[Chorus:]
So I open myself to the thought
And the hope and the real and the fact it could end
But I'm taking the chance
'Cause I know if we don't then we might never find this again
And I know that we can't be alone what we might be together
So I'll give you my best for what's left of the rest of forever

[Bridge:]
I'm yours, forever I'm sure
As forever I've been, I said never again

[Chorus:]
But I open myself to the thought
And the hope and the real and the fact it could end
But I'm taking this chance
'Cause I know if we don't then we might never find this again
And I know that we can't be alone what we might be together
So I'll give you my best for what's left of the rest
I'll give you my best for what's left of the rest of forever
