Song Description

looking back on a life left behind, including the important people in it

Lyrics

I went back to visit all the friends I miss
Since I journeyed off to find me.
That's when I learned that you were gone.
I hadn't seen you in so long.
Oh what a sudden pain.
Guess they're right: that time makes all things change.

Sometimes when you're looking back upon
The times that you remember,
They might look better than they were
Feeling today so insecure
Leaving it all behind.
Guess they're right: that nothing is forever.

They're tearing down the building where we were when you and I first met.
The magic of my youth is disappearing the older that I get.
Nothing lasts in this temporary world, it's very true.
Nothing is Forever, except my love for you.

So the scenery may be changed but in our
hearts it always lingers.
I'm glad I have the memory:
me loving you, you loving me.
Wish I could touch your face, see your eyes
If love has left a trace.

There's so many things I wish you knew
That fear kept me from saying.
And now I'm more afraid my friend,
I may not be seeing you again.
Think I'll drop you a line.
Guess they're right: that nothing is forever.

They're tearing down the building where we were when you and I first met.
The magic of my youth is disappearing the older that I get.
Nothing lasts in this temporary world, it's very true.
Nothing is Forever, except my love, my love for you.
