Nothing is forever. And good things never last. And learning in the future. Is based on lessons from the past. I thought we were gold in the fire. And we could not be burned. Till you lost your desire. And I melted to learn. I thought I could keep you from changing shape. But two people cannot believe. On one man's faith. And your love it was an hourglass. What I thought I'd found. Was too good to last. And your love it was a promise made. But our lock and key. Held a broken chain. And now when I see you. I don't understand. And all I needed from you then. Has now become all the time on my hands. It was torture to see it comin'. As we reached the end of days. The sands of time were fallin'. From a premature heart decay. And as I stood in falsehood. In our final hour. I prayed for the roots of a redwood. But you withered like a flower. And when you finally spoke. The words that broke my heart. I couldn't blame you too much. Cause I knew from the start. And your love it was an hourglass. What I thought I'd found. Was too good to last. And your love it was a promise made. But our lock and key. Held a broken chain. And now when I see you. I don't understand. And all I needed from you then. Has now become all the time on my hands. And your love it was an hourglass. What I thought I'd found. Was too good to last. And your love it was an hourglass. What I thought I'd found. Was too good to last. And your love it was a promise made. But our lock and key. Held a broken chain
