Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 

I’ve been staring at the walls
Filling in the holes
I’ve been missing you again
You’re the perfect past
I knew would never last
You were under my skin 

Ooh the colours I once saw
Ain’t colours anymore
They’re only shades of black and white
I’ve been counting all the stars
Like I counted on you
But some have disappeared in the night

Ooh nothing ever lasts forever
You can take it from me my friend
It’s the same as a life or bad weather
There’s always gonna be an end
I guess there’ll never come a tomorrow
For us it was a little too late
I think it’s gonna last forever
I often used to hear you say

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 

Now I’ve cut out your face 
But a photo can’t erase
All the places we’ve been
And we were on a road
Heading for a close
That was always a dead end

Ooh you were like the blood
Flowing through my heart
But somehow I’ll just carry on
There ain’t much to remember
With so much to forget
I bet ya miss me now I’m gone 

Ooh nothing ever lasts forever
You can take it from me my friend
It’s the same as a life or bad weather
There’s always gonna be an end
I guess there’ll never come a tomorrow
For us it was a little too late
I think it’s gonna last forever 
I often used to hear you say

Ooh we cannot return 
We can only look back
The days of wine and roses ain’t long
But summer comes around
And blows away the cloud
And all those grey skies are gone

Ooh nothing ever lasts forever
You can take it from me my friend
It’s the same as a life or bad weather
There’s always gonna be an end
I guess there’ll never come a tomorrow
For us it was a little too late
I think it’s gonna last forever 
I often used to hear you say

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh 

Nothing ever lasts forever
Nothing ever lasts forever
