Nobody Lives Forever
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 raining here in manhattan
It's coming down and as we're reborn
It's raining on my [incomprehensible] parade
It's moving like a shot in the dark
There's nobody answering the prayer that i'd say
Guess i'll just live for today
One thing i know is i'm not coming back
Nobody lives forever
I'm looking for something to live for
I'm thinking 'bout it all of the time
I just want something i can believe in
I need something that i can call mine
There's nobody listening to words that i say
Tell them to live for today
One thing i know is i'm not coming back
Nobody lives forever, nobody lives forever
This i know
Life is stronger
No tomorrow
There's nobody answering the prayers that i say
Guess i'll just live for today
One thing i know is i'm not coming back
Nobody lives forever, nobody lives forever
Nobody lives forever
Nobody lives forever
Nobody lives forever
