Lyrics
Nothing Last Forever!
(Chorus)
Nothing last forever.
Nothing last forever.
Nothing last forever. Forever!
You had a cheerful soul.
But you've seem to lost control.
We have misunderstood.
Just when it seems we have it good.
We tend to think we have it made.
'Til those things we work for, start to fade.
Nothing last forever goes hand-in-hand.
You, just don't seem to understand.
Now you've faced reality.
I guess it wasn't meant to be!? Cause?
(Chorus)
Now if you say I am wrong.
You won't think so very long.
Now you're finally on track.
The unexpected things come hold you back.
You raise your hands in the air and sigh.
But in reality, it makes you want to cry.
We try to understand it logically.
Why does this have to be? ? Cause!
((Chorus) Repeat to fade)
