I had high hopes for us baby
Like I was on dope for us baby
Chasin' after a high that I'll never get back again
So we turned 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
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
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 want to call
Baby what always helps
Is when I think of the pain
And I realize I'm better off by myself
This forever doesn't last too long
Forever doesn't last too long
Forever doesn't last too long these days
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
Lord knows I gave it more honor
I couldn't save us from falling
Cause some people claim it to be together forever, forever
Thus forever doesn't last too long
Forever doesn't last too long
Forever doesn't last too long these days
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
