Nothing Lasts Forever

Can’t you see the tears, falling from my eyes? Don’t you see the truth, dispelling all the lies? I hate to see you go so soon like the cool weather I have to say goodbye, for nothing lasts forever I miss you I want you I need you But, it’s time to leave And I’m left to grieve Oh, don’t move away from me It feels like you’re going to go And I need you next to me, baby I want you to know…to know… I’m sorry, baby, for letting you down But, it’s time to leave And I’m left to grieve I wanted you to know that you’re not alone in this world of woe And I slip into the atmosphere without a sound For, it’s time to leave And I’m left to grieve Don’t you know, little person of faith, have faith in brighter days You’re not on your own This time, I want you badly In this life, in this life I want you to know, yeah, I want you to know I’ll sift out all the strife I have to say goodbye, for nothing lasts forever I miss you I want you I need you But, it’s time to leave And I’m left to grieve Oh, don’t move away from me It feels like you’re going to go And I need you next to me, baby I want you to know…to know… I’m sorry, baby, for letting you down But, it’s time to leave And I’m left to grieve I wanted you to know that you’re not alone in this world of woe And I slip into the atmosphere without a sound For, it’s time to leave And I’m left to grieve Don’t you know, little person of faith, have faith in brighter days You’re not on your own And I’m destined to die in your arms, in your arms And I want you to know I miss your lucky charms So, baby, why don’t you love me the way you used to? Why, why does it seem like I’m sick with dem love flu? I have to say goodbye, for nothing lasts forever I miss you I want you I need you But, it’s time to leave And I’m left to grieve Oh, don’t move away from me It feels like you’re going to go And I need you next to me, baby I want you to know…to know… I’m sorry, baby, for letting you down But, it’s time to leave And I’m left to grieve I wanted you to know that you’re not alone in this world of woe And I slip into the atmosphere without a sound For, it’s time to leave And I’m left to grieve Don’t you know, little person of faith, have faith in brighter days You’re not on your own I miss you I want you I need you But, it’s time to leave And I’m left to grieve I have to say goodbye, for nothing lasts forever Nothing lasts forever Please come back to me Please understand me possibly I need you to be next to me Right now or for eternity I wish it wasn’t time to leave… But, all you have to do is believe Even though nothing lasts forever
