Forever Never Lasts
A cold and lonely night
spins shadows in my soul
of memories brushed into place
and stories never told
of passion and desire
to light the kindred flame
No words to say im sorry
there's no one left to blame.
So I thought I would take the time
to tell you these few words
like the feathers left behind
of yesterdays love birds
I fall upon the ground and sing
a sad and lonely song
It seems forever...never lasts for very long.
