Nothing Is Here To Stay

[verse] Nothing is ever permanent Except for change, they say We must cherish every moment Because nothing is here to stay [chorus] Whoa, yay, yay Nothing is here to stay Whoa, yay, one day Everything will pass away [instrumental bridge] [verse] When beauty once provided In time fades away The future has been decided Because nothing is here to stay [chorus] Whoa, yay, yay Nothing is here to stay Whoa, yay, one day Everything will pass away [instrumental solo] [verse] Empires rise and fall in trouble Mountains once touching the sky Will be reduced to rubble Stars ignite and fade to die [verse] When time runs out perhaps All will become merely radiation And spacetime itself might collapse Repeating the cycle of creation [chorus] Whoa, yay, yay Nothing is here to stay Whoa, yay, one day Everything will pass away [instrumental bridge] [verse] Like castles built in the sand By the water shall be washed away It’s important to understand That nothing is here to stay [outro] Nothing is here to stay [fadeout end]
