Neil Diamond - Evermore

"Evermore" by Neil Diamond
Album:12 Songs

Have we come this far to have gone astray?
I've been lost before, but not lost this way
You and me, thought we'd be
Evermore

Do I know you?
Did I ever?
Thought I did
Now, I know better
Saw the signs but not the danger
How'd you get to be a stranger at my door?

Promises got left behind
And reason fell between the lines
The words unsaid we should have spoken
Both misled and left us broken
Evermore

Have we said it all?
Is there more to say?
Thought we'd paid our dues
Is there more to pay?
What's to be of you and me
Evermore?

Was it love or just illusion?
All I see is our confusion
Came upon us unsuspecting
Here we are reflecting on the last of it

If you think of me in a year or two
Find that photograph showing me with you
What you see is what should be
Evermore

Why?
Tell me why
Don't know why
Oh, why?

Where's the truth we took for granted?
Walking out's not how we planned it
Played it loose, but stayed together
Thought we had the truth
But never knew the score

If it's done for now
And its time to go
There's one thing unsaid
Thought you'd want to know
Love you still....guess I will
Evermore

Love you still...yes I will
Evermore

Just head the song for the very first time and instantly I would have to say it's my favourite Neil Diamond song.

[MsAshley28]

I wonder if you will think of me, of what could have been. How we could have loved for evermore. Maybe someday, baby.

It surpasses understanding that all these beautiful heartfelt songs come from one man, this song is truly a heartbreaker as it draws the deepest feelings from within us and touches the innermost recesses of the heart and soul and brings to the surface our most private feelings, cherish Neil forever

[dawnjakeleah]

How does he come up with all these songs, one after another. Amazing. And he is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Shame

Oh 'God mighty, What a heavenly beautiful song wit strong, Lyrics, tremendous voice and a total of this all that reaches heaven!

Neil, you are really one of the best songwriters of our hemnisfere! Waauw!

Really, te gek!

Thunderlips, thanks a lot for sharing this maestri piece of work with all of us!

It's the best cut on 12 songs because it has the fullest instrumental accompaniment on the album. Rubin gets great songs from Mr. Diamond, but they are too stripped down musically. Instead of remaking latter day Johnny Cash they need to be remember the full sounds of Beautiful Noise and Glad You're Here With Me Tonight.

Sometimes he hits the mood right on the money. Best cut on 12 songs...
