Forever Don’t Last
[Verse 1]
I had high hopes for us, baby
Like I was on dope for us, baby
Chasin' after a high that I'd never get back again
So we turn into three long years
And it became painfully clear that we
We would never see those days again

[Chorus]
But I guess forever, doesn't last too long
Forever doesn't last too long
Forever doesn't last too long these days, hey
And I tried to believe that we could make it
But trying don't work, so I just have to face that
Forever doesn't last too long these days, hey

[Verse 2]
Still think about the good times we had
And how you used to make me laugh
But baby, I know most times we were miserable
So everytime I wanna call, baby, what always helps
Is when I think of the pain, and I realize
I'm better off by myself

[Chorus]
'Cause forever, doesn't last too long
Forever doesn't last too long
Forever doesn't last too long these days, hey
And I tried to believe that we could make it
But trying don't work, so I just have to face that
Forever doesn't last too long these days, hey
[Bridge]
Lord knows I gave it my all and
I couldn't save us from falling
'Cause some people ain't meant to be together forever, forever

[Chorus]
'Cause forever, doesn't last too long
Forever doesn't last too long
Forever doesn't last too long these days, hey
And I tried to believe that we could make it
But trying don't work, so I just have to face that
Forever doesn't last too long forever these days, hey
