Michael Jackson - For All Time (Demo Version)

Written by Michael Sherwood, David Paich, and Steve Porcaro during the Thriller sessions and recorded in 1990 as a contender for Michael's album Dangerous, but it wasn't released at the time.

This song then surfaced on the internet towards the end of 2002.

Final version released on the Thriller 25th Anniversary Album.


For All Time - Lyrics

Sun comes up on this new morning
Shifting shadows, a songbird sings
And if these words could have kept you happy

I'd do anything

And if you feel alone, I'll be your shoulder
With a tender touch, you know me so well
Somebody once said, it's the soul that matters
Baby, who can really tell,
When two hearts belong so well

Maybe the walls will tumble
And sun may refuse to shine
When I say, I love you
Baby, you've gotta know
(I don't know)
That's for all time
Baby you gotta know
(I don't know)
That's for all time

Moon shines down on this good evening
One warm kiss in this cold night air
For this good love undeceiving
I'll go anywhere
Just as long as you are there

And maybe the walls will tumble
Sun may refuse to shine
When I say, I love you
Baby, you've gotta know
That's for all time
(I don't know)
Baby you gotta know
(I don't know)
That's for all time

Oh... oh, oh, oh...
The sun in me
Oh... oh, oh, oh...
All these words that young lovers say...

And maybe the walls will crumble
And sun may refuse to shine
When I say, I need you
Baby, you've gotta know
That's for all time
(I don't know)
Baby you gotta know
(I don't know)
That's for all time

Baby, you can never go
Baby, you gotta know
See that you never go
That's for all time
Baby, you never know
(I don't know)
That's for all time...
