forever don't last

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

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

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 every time i wanna call

baby

what always helps

is when i think of the pain

and i realize

i'm better off by myself

'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

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

'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
