you said, the night that you met me
was the night you met yourself
pale blue eyes, looking back at you
no past to regret
it’s almost a miracle,
just to be here at all
watching the sun on the horizon
blink and watch it fall
it’s not for nothing this life
and i know this when i look in your
eyes
you said, nothing lasts forever
not even the stars above
but that’s what makes it all worth while
the roads were long and lonely
from texas to idaho
driving through the country
thousands of miles from home
i was so young then,
i didn’t know know much at all
but i’d always be home again
whenever you would call.
it’s not for nothing this life
and i know this when i look in your
eyes
you said, nothing lasts forever
not even the stars above
