Nothing Lasts Forever

I saw you spiraling
 I saw you spinning back in time
 through all your memories
 such a quiet disease
 you had forgotten me
 but I'll always remember you dancing
 across the kitchen in your orange handkerchief
 such a quiet disease
 I pray that when you dream you would remember everything
 you know it all comes back to you
 in one conscience dream
 maybe you'd sing and put words to all the things
 that you think of in a day
 but forgotten how to say
 nothing last forever
 not even the mountains
 someday they will be swept away and swallowed by the sea
 we all shall be blessedly released
 life is so precious it's as fragile as a dream
 and in a moment we all grow our wings
 I wish to sing as if no ones listening
 I wish to dance as if no one is watching
 I wish to dance as if no one is watching
 and I, give thanks for my dreams
 you can rob me of my sight
 and you can poison my blood stream
 but as long as I can dream then life is worth living
 nothing last forever
 not even the mountains
 someday they will be swept away and swallowed by the sea
 we all shall be blessedly released
 nothing last forever
 not even the sun
 for all we know it could have burned out light years ago
 darkness remains the hardest thing for us to outrun
