I believe that nothing lasts forever Promises won't help us stay together Life for us was never hearts and flowers my friend It seems we couldn't solve lifes problems Maybe it's because we tried so seldom So much must change today That I can only hope and pray Chorus As I watch you leave the room that I'll see you very soon And it's all that I can do to keep from running after you And though I wanted you I let you walk away It's just a simple case of heartache My hands begin to tremble and my knees shake Somewhere along the line I hope we can make amends I believe that nothing lasts forever Promises won't help us stay together You may come home one day Till then I only hope and pray As You turn to leave the room I hope I'll see you very soon And it's all that I can do to keep from running after you And though I wanted to I let you walk awaya
