You'll live forever in my heart

This was the single most influential magazine issue of my life. See ya I.D.

Bibio is so good.

To lengthen the wait, to stretch out the day longer
The night is so cold, the wind cuts us both stronger

Oh, this moment
Just be forever

My fingers and toes have no feeling to hold, oh
I know that you long to be warm on your way home
but for you I would wait till the cold takes us both under

Oh, this hour
Just be forever

It crumbles my heart to think of us part, oh
To know that you hope for the night to be through, oh
And the last thing I save is the palm of your wave, oh

Oh, this moment
Please be forever
