I’ll never learn
I cling to the past
I find so much there to lean on
But when I get lucky
I can even forget
Our now and forevers are gone

I know what you mean
I go there myself
When I feel the mood coming on
It comes on so easy
It’s hard to believe
Our now and forevers are gone

When did we lose our starry eyes
The feeling’s too strong to compromise
Something went wrong between hello and goodbye
Now it’s too late
Love you were great, how was I?

I’m doing my best with somebody else
It’s good to feel counted upon
It keeps me from sliding to where I forget
Our now and forevers are gone

When did we lose our starry eyes
The feeling’s too strong to compromise
Something went wrong between hello and goodbye
Now it’s too late
Love you were great, how was I?
