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
