Intro: When we were young and green We shared our dreams Together And you were my friend... We had our good times, pal. We thought they'd last Forever. But nothing last forever-- Nothing lasts forever. Time goes by And people change. It's best we go our Separate ways. And it was wrong to think our love ( Would never end, My friend. Nothing lasts forever Nothing lasts forever Time goes by, It takes us all. Nations crumble and empires fall. And who are we to think that ( We would always be? You see, Nothing lasts forever Nothing lasts forever... I know that you'll survive And you'll get by Whatever. Though you say goodbye-- my love will never die It will last forever. Your love will die But mine will last forever. Your love will fade But mine will last forever. Your feeling might go But mine will last forever. And though you're gone You're in my mind forever
