Lovers in the sunshine laughing at each other

Walking by

Children on the water singing to the skylark

Flying high

Nothing lasts for ever no one ever knows the reason why

 

Summers pass so quickly songs become a memory

Lost in time

Photos of the moments that should last for ever

Left behind 

But nothing lasts for ever no one ever knows the reason why

 

Long lonely nights, I dream of you, I call your name 

I close my eyes,  but nothing’s changed

 

Long lonely nights, I hear you cry, you call my name

You close your eyes and things don’t change on lovers’ nights

 

Smiling at the morning dancing on your pillow 

For a while

All your fears forgotten hidden in the corners

Of your mind

But nothing lasts for ever no one ever knows the reason why

 

Nothing lasts for ever no one ever knows the reason why

 

Long lonely nights, I dream of you, I call your name 

I close my eyes, but nothing’s changed 

Long lonely nights, I hear you cry, you call my name, 

You close your eyes, but things don’t change on lovers’ nights

You call my name, You close your eyes, but things don’t change on lovers’ nights
