Nothing Lasts Forever Testo

He's waiting down at the corner under the streetlight

He's only following orders 'til midnight

And then he'll sneak back home to his wife

And his everyday life


He says he's been at the pub with the boys all the night

She acts as if she don't know says it's all right

But he knows she don't believe him



On and on

On and on

'Cause nothing lasts forever

Yeah nothing lasts forever



Everything dies, eventually
Close your eyes, you don't wanna see



Yeah nothing lasts forever

Yeah nothing lasts forever



Everything dies, eventually

Close your eyes, you don't wanna see



Yeah nothing lasts forever

(Yeah nothing lasts forever)



This isn't how she thought that her life would be

When they first met back in sixty-three

And a future together was all she could see

All she could see



He said if you stick with me then you know we'll be all right

A family for the rest of our lives

And I'll always be by your side

And that's when she cried



On and on

On and on

'Cause nothing lasts forever

Yeah nothing lasts forever



Everything dies, eventually

Close your eyes, you don't wanna see



Yeah nothing lasts forever

Yeah nothing lasts forever



Everything dies, eventually

Close your eyes, you don't wanna see



Yeah nothing lasts forever

(Yeah nothing lasts forever)



So he takes off his tie

And he tells another lie

She only believed it for a minute



And she doesn't ask why

She doesn't wanna cry

She only believed it for a minute



He's walking out of the door and into a new life

He's already got plans with his new wife

And a house in a new neighborhood



He says he's been at the pub with the boys all the night

She acts as if she don't know says it's all right

But he knows she don't believe him

But she's sick of arguing



On and on

On and on

And nothing lasts forever

Yeah nothing lasts forever



Everything dies, eventually

Close your eyes, you don't wanna see



Yeah nothing lasts forever

Yeah nothing lasts forever



Everything dies, eventually

Close your eyes, you don't wanna see



Yeah nothing lasts forever

(Yeah nothing lasts forever)



Forever

And nothing lasts forever

Forever

Forever
