'''''Forever You''''' is a song recorded during the 2001/2002 demo sessions. It was never released. According to John LeCompt's ex-wife, Shelly, an old version of "Forever You" was John's song before he joined Evanescence, with its working title originally being "C Sharp", and Evanescence later re-worked it and Amy added her own lyrics to that version.<ref name="evboard" /> | |||

Lyrics
I wanted you to be with me
For so long I don't even know why now
But now that I've given up on you
Defiantly you see me
Walking away I see the pain
You put me through [I see through you]
Lost in your game to change the same
Forever gone, forever you
There's something very wrong about this
I think you knew all along somehow
You'll only take me to change my mind
And leave me broken and defeated
So far away I see the truth
I see through you [I see through you]
Now that I know the way you play
I don't want to
Walking away I see the pain
You put me through [I see through you]
Lost in your game to change the same
Forever gone, forever you
So far away I see the truth
I see through you [I see through you]
Now that I know the way you play
I don't want to
Walking away I see the pain
You put me through
Lost in your game to change the same
Forever gone, forever you
