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
