lyrics

NOTHING EVER LASTS
(written by Alfa Garcia/BMI & Alex Houton/ASCAP)

You look charming with you're wide-eyes staring at me
and your shoes, they look hundred years old
you invite me with your hands, you motion for me
to come closer when the sky unfolds

They say the race is never won
we... tie on our running shoes and go
this place is big, bigger than us

I can't get over this feeling anymore
I can't get over this feeling anymore
I can't get over this feeling that I'm growing old too fast
and nothing ever lasts.

Everything is changing constantly
where are the days of lemonade and vanilla ice cream?
here's a penny for your words of wisdom
i don't think the world is anything it seems.

Remote controls couldn't help us now
so, pack up your tv set and go
this place is big, bigger than us.

I can't get over this feeling anymore

oh I'm just trying to stay
real on the inside
oh I wanna be like a child
for a little while… cuz I

I can't get over this feeling anymore
I can't get over this feeling anymore
I can't get over this feeling that I'm growing old too fast
and nothing ever
I can't get over this feeling anymore
I can't get over this feeling anymore
I can't get over this feeling that I'm growing old too fast
and nothing ever lasts…nothing ever lasts, nothing ever lasts.
