Inspired by: Randy Travis’s “Forever and Ever, Amen”

“Forever” sounds easy when you first say it. But what happens after the vows, after the music, after the amen?

This song is a quiet heartbreak — a reflection on what happens when love fades but the promises still echo. It’s a response to Randy Travis’s timeless classic. Not meant to disrespect, but to explore the what ifs. What if it didn’t last? What if forever ended? What if someone meant it… and still couldn’t hold on?

It’s soft, poetic, and full of ache. Sometimes the hardest part of love is living past the promise.
