Lyrics
Make It Last
© Akrofi Koram, Raymond Wade
Verse I
How many times do I say goodbye?
So many times and I don't know why
We laughed, we loved, and all felt so right
While our hearts raced through each day and night
Pre-Chorus
Isn't it funny how it all begins, all joy no pain
But isn't it funny how quick love can change, no joy remains
Chorus
How did it all fade so fast?
I thought our love felt so true
Can't seem to grasp why we couldn't make it last
Don't know if we did all we could
Verse II
Played love's game, it always ends the same
Picking the pieces of a heart that breaks
From the falling hard to the pull away
Then finding we don't have what it takes
To make it last
Pre-Chorus
Isn't it funny how our love began, all joy no pain
But isn't it crazy how our love it changed, no joy remained
Chorus
How did it all fade so fast
When what we had felt so true?
Can't seem to grasp why we couldn't make it last
Don't know if we did all we could
Bridge
What were the reasons
I never discovered
Your silence was all that I heard
When you left not saying a word
Seems like in minutes
It was all over
There's no moment that I can recall
That made us lose our love for each other
