Nothing Lasts Forever

[Verse 1]
I want you to want me
I want you to care
I wanna wake up late
I want you right there
I don't wanna say, "Hey"
Or give it a try
But that's just the way it is sometimes
Sometimes, you say goodbye (Goodbye)
Met her on the L train, comin' home
From a job I know she hates, and I said
"Excuse me, baby, do you have the time? I believe I'm late"
And she said, "Six o'clock, but if I were you, I wouldn't worry about that"
'Cause in this life, there ain't no turnin' back

[Chorus]
'Cause nothin' lasts forever, so let's keep it real
Lеt's make the most of evеrything that we feel
'Cause after the sunshine, you know there's the rain
I know you can't stay, but hey, I'm glad that you came
And just like sand, I'll wash away
There's so much more I want to say

[Verse 2]
I want you to feel me
I want you to know
I can't live without you
I want us to grow
I don't wanna say, "Hey, I'll see you around"
But that's just the way it is sometimes
Sometimes, you get let down

[Chorus]
'Cause nothin' lasts forever, so let's keep it real
Let's make the most of everything that we feel
'Cause after the sunshine, you know there's the rain
I know you can't stay, but hey, I'm glad that you came
And just like sand, I'll wash away
There's so much more I want to say

[Bridge]
Nothin' lasts forever
Ooh, washin' away
Ooh, washin' away, I'm washin'
Ooh, after today, she's walkin' away
Nothin' to say

[Chorus]
'Cause nothin' lasts forever, so let's keep it real
Let's make the most of everything that we feel
'Cause after the sunshine, you know there's the rain
I know you can't stay, but hey, I'm glad that you came
And just like sand, I'll wash away
There's so much more I want to say

[Chorus 2]
Nothing's in stone, nothing is real
Do what you want, do what you feel
I pick up the phone, but there's not a sound
It's up in the air, got my feet on the ground
And just like sand, I'll wash away
There's so much more I want to say

[Outro]
Nothin' lasts forever
Nothin' lasts forever
Nothin' lasts forever
Ooh, washin' away
Ooh, washin' away, I'm washin'
