| A cold beer's got twelve ounces
|
| A good truck's got maybe three hundred thousand
|
| You only get so much until it's gone
|
| Duracells in a Maglite
|
| A needle drop on a forty-five
|
| Are the kinda things that only last so long
|
| When the new wears off, and they get to gettin' old
|
| Sooner or later, time's gonna take its toll
|
| They say nothing lasts forever
|
| But they ain't seen us together
|
| Or the way the moonlight dances in your eyes
|
| Just a T-shirt in the kitchen
|
| With no make-up and a million
|
| Other things that I could look at my whole life
|
| A love like that makes a man have second thoughts
|
| Maybe some things last forever after all
|
| The FM station on the outskirts
|
| Blue jeans after years of shift work
|
| All fadin' out like I always knew they would
|
| The strings on this guitar
|
| The first love lost on a young heart
|
| Those things are gonna break after the getting's good
|
| 'Cause the new wears off and they get to gettin' old
|
| Yeah, sooner or later, time's gonna take its toll
|
| They say nothing lasts forever
|
| But they ain't seen us together
|
| Or the way the moonlight dances in your eyes
|
| Just a T-shirt in the kitchen
|
| With no make-up and a million
|
| Other things that I could look at my whole life
|
| A love like that makes a man have second thoughts
|
| Maybe some things last forever after all
|
| They say nothing lasts forever
|
| But they ain't seen us together
|
| Or the way the moonlight dances in your eyes
|
| And I know there'll be that moment
|
| The good Lord calls one of us home and
|
| One won't have the other by their side
|
| But Heaven knows it, that won't last too long
|
| Maybe some things last forever after all
|
| After all |
