Brett Dennen - Nothing Lasts Forever lyrics

rate me

I saw you spiraling

I saw you spinning back in time

Through all your memories

Such a quiet disease

You had forgotten me

But I'll always remember you dancing

Across the kitchen in your orange handkerchief

Such a quiet disease

I pray that when you dream

You would remember everything

You know it all comes back to you

In one conscience dream

Maybe you'd sing and

Put words to all the things

That you think of in the day

But forgotten how to say

Nothing lasts forever

Not even the mountains

Some day they will be swept away and swallowed by the sea

We all shall be blessedly released

Life is so precious

It's as fragile as a dream

And in the moment we all grow our wings

I wish to sing as if no one's listening

I wish to dance as if no one is watching

I wish to dance as if no one is watching

And i give thanks for my dreams

You can rob me of my sight

And you can poison my bloodstream

But as long as i can dream

Then life is worth living

Nothing lasts forever

Not even the mountains

Some day they will be swept away and swallowed by the sea

We all shall be blessedly released

Nothing lasts forever

Not even the sun

For all we know it could have burned out light years ago

Darkness remains the hardest thing for us to out run
