When the day is over,
I like to ease my mind
By jucin’ up my system,
With the beat of a heavy kind
I smack a bottle open,
I crank the hi-fi high
I’m in-a seventh heaven
Ooh I can touch the sky

I’m in love, so in love
And I can’t stop talking ’bout my rock forever

It starts to move into me,
Just how I can’t explain,
It’s like a brilliant sunshine,
After standing in the pouring rain
My skin begins to tingle,
Ooh right on down my back.
It’s really got me fevered,
Pounding my senses flat.

I’m in love, so in love
And I can’t stop talking ’bout my rock forever

Rock – rock – rock forever (I love it)
Rock – rock – rock forever (my fever)
Rock – rock – rock forever (always gonna) Rock – rock – rock forever
I can’t stop talkin’ about…rock…
Now get it right, boys…

So when you get those blue days,
Here’s just what to do
Switch into this lifeline
And the feelin’ rushin’ through
Before you know it, blue days
Are now left behind
By juicin’ up your system
With this beat of a heavy kind

I’m in love, so in love
And I can’t stop talking ’bout my rock forever Rock forever
I’m gonna rock forever.
