Lyrics
Nothing Lasts Forever
lyrics by: Richard Duane (BMI)
music by :Christian Mirailles (SACEM)
Nothing lasts forever
Is that really true
If nothin lasts forever
What about me and you
Seems like a lifetime
Has already come and gone
And we just stick togeather
Going on and on
you are my life?s blood
you create the spirit in me
when I look at you
I feel the soft winds of eternity
Nothin lasts forever
The sun gives way to the moon
Nothin lasts forever
But we stay with the same old tune
(bridge)
And if the stars in the heavens
Stop shinin in the night
And if you still hold me
Hold me tender, hold me tight
Maybe nothin lasts forever
But I'll just play our song
Because melodies and memories
Seem to go on and on
(close)
Blessed are we
Blessed are we
Blessed are we to know
That what we have is forever
Forever as far as time can go
