Nothing Lasts Forever

from The Lights of Te Atatu by Dominic Blaazer

lyrics

Dreamed of you the other night
Face to face, it was a beautiful sight
We talked about the lives we could have had together.
How many times did I say to you
So many ways to show my heart is true
But tables turn and fingers burn
Nothing lasts forever

I’m only happy when I’m thinking of you
My inspiration when I’ve got to get through
It isn’t easy but it’s all I can do to feel alive
I never asked you for any guarantees
I’d sacrifice everything except my liberty
To hear you whisper the sweetest things to me in the night

Walking through your neighbourhood
Head held high, feeling good
With every step time falls away, it’s easy to forget her.
When the winter sunshine turns to snow
I hold on to my rosy glow
This history is part of me
Nothing lasts forever

I’m only happy when I’m thinking of you
My inspiration when I’ve got to get through
It isn’t easy but it’s all I can do to feel alive
I never asked you for any guarantees
I’d sacrifice everything except my liberty
To hear you whisper the sweetest things to me in the night
