some things don't last forever Lyrics

When we locked eyes

We were meant for life

And life happened

We grew apart

I wish we could see

It was a mirage

That ended up hurting

Who we claimed we loved

We saw it fading

But we were stubborn

We kept it pushing

And broke each other's heart

We saw it dying

And we didn't know

That some things don't last forever

We planted seeds in the desert

Hoping to grow a forest

We wished for a garden

Where it never rains

We tried to live underwater

Breathing through the nose

We filled our lungs

And we drowned

We saw it fading

But we were stubborn

We kept it pushing

And broke each other's heart

We saw it dying

And tried ou best

But some things don't last forever

You know, saying I love you is more than just phrase

It's a promise, a promise we failed to hold

And as much as I'm trying to make sense of all this

Maybe two good people can hurt each other

And maybe two good hearts can fall out of love

And maybe love is just a crying game, a painful game

We played, and we lost
