Nothing Good Lasts Forever

by: Linda Lou Phillips

Nothing good lasts forever

I once heard someone say

That thought really frightens me

As I go through each day

It seems that happy moments

For me are so hard to find

When I find one, I want to hold on

There's so many I keep in my mind

I've come to the place where I am afraid

To give someone all of my love

For the day always comes when they go away

Then there's only the memory of

Happy memories, they feel so good

At the times when I'm feeling low

But nothing good lasts forever

This is one thing that I know

I guess that's why I make the mistake

Of hanging on to something that's gone

It feels so good to find it

I want to hang on and on

But people change and life goes on

And I know that again I'll find

A happy time, all new and real

To put with the others in my mind

The secret is, to learn to let go

And be happy for what you had

Look ahead and not behind

And things won't seem so bad

Nothing good lasts forever

I once heard someone say

Well, they had found the secret

That I had learned the hard way
