Nothing Can Stay
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's getting dark again kinda like it was before
And I'm lost again somewhere out here on the road
Where's the gold that I saw glitter and change my night to day
Don't tell me nothing is forever and nothing can stay
I've felt the sun and I know the rain
And I should know that people like the seasons will change
But don't tell me that everything in life will be that way
Don't tell me nothing is forever and nothing can stay
I guess darkness has to come whenever the sun goes down
And death must follow birth and the cycle of life goes round
But what of all this love I've found is it wrong to try
To hold on to it with all I've got and want to know why
Why can't something be for real and not change with time
And why can't the heart feel the same was as the mind
I didn't know it long enough don't let it go away
Don't tell me nothing is forever and nothing can stay
Oh don't let love and happiness turn out that way
Don't tell me nothing is forever and nothing can stay
