Nothing Can Stay

It's getting dark again
Kinda like it was before
And I'm lost again
Somewhere out here on the road

Where's the gold that I saw glitter
And change my night to day
Don't tell me nothing is forever
And nothing can stay

I've felt the sun and I know the rain
And I should know that people
Like the seasons will change
But don't tell me that everything in life will be that way
Don't tell me nothing is forever
And nothing can stay

I guess darkness has to come
Whenever the sun goes down
And death must follow birth
And the cycle of life goes round

But what of all this love I've found
Is it wrong to try
To hold on to it with all I've got
And want to know why

Why can't something be for real a
Ad not change with time
And why can't the heart feel the same
Was as the mind
I didn't know it long enough
Don't let it go away

Don't tell me nothing is forever
And nothing can stay
Oh, don't let love and happiness turn out that way
Don't tell me nothing is forever
And nothing can stay
