Minnie Riperton - Return to Forever Lyrics

(rudolph - waldman)

Days... floating round the bend
Through the rainbow's end
Return to forever

Nights... ring around the moon
Ending all too soon
Return to forever

When we reach the autumn's bend
Will we wish that we were young again
Laughing in the face of time
If only we knew now, what we did then

Clouds... billow cross the sky
Changing as they fly
Return to forever

Waves... rush to kiss the shore
Once and nevermore
Go back, return to forever

How I wish that you were mine
And we could live again that summertime
To be that happy just this once again
If only we felt now as we did then

Child... holding out your hand
Please try to understand
Return to forever, return to forever
