nothing lasts forever

Maroon 5 - Nothing Lasts Forever

It is so easy to see

Dysfunction between you and me

We must free up these tired souls

Before the sadness kills us both

I tried and tried to let you know

I love you but I’m letting go

It may not last but I don’t know

Just don’t know

If you don’t know

Then you can’t care

And I show up

But you’re not there

But I’m waiting

And you want to

Still afraid that I will desert you

Everyday

With every word whispered we get more far away

The distance between us makes it so hard to stay

But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe

It hurts but it may be the only way

A babe that’s warm with memories

Can heal us temporarily

The misbehaving all he makes

The ditch between us so damn deep

Built a wall around my heart

Never let it fall apart

Strangely I wish secretly

It won’t fall down while I’m asleep

If you don’t know

Then you can’t care

And I show up

But you’re not there

But I’m waiting

And you want to

Still afraid that I will desert you, babe

Everyday

With every word whispered we get more far away

The distance between us makes it so hard to stay

But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe

It hurts but it may be the only way

But we have not hit the ground

Doesn’t mean we’re not still falling, oh

I want for mine to pick you up

But you’re still too reluctant to accept my help

What a shame, I hope you find somewhere to place the blame

But until then the fact remains

Everyday

With every word whispered we get more far away

The distance between us makes it so hard to stay

Nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe

It hurts but it may be the only way

Everyday

With every word whispered we get more far away

The distance between us makes it so hard to stay

But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe

It hurts but it may be the only way
