Goodbyes Make Me Cry

Went back to visit my hometown this weekend and I was reflecting on what I was feeling when we moved away....cannot believe it has been 8 months! Time flies. We are happy where we are, it's a wonderful place....but, there's something about knowing that you'll never get certain moments back that gives you just a taste of bittersweet. So...

Nothing Lasts Forever

So many memories where we first made our home
Where he took his first steps
Tiny little footprints, painted on the porch steps
The lessons learned, the music of our life
filled our small and cozy space
And I know we'll never hear
the same music in another place

But it was time as, time always comes for change
We could try to delay
And try to escape, but it'd find us all the same
So since we can't hide from, instead we chose to run
Towards the dwelling of our fate
And take the risks that come our way
Oh, possibilities of a new day

Empty boxes, empty boxes all around
Stretched across on the ground
We'll fill them up with new dreams, until they bust at the seams
Yes, the best has yet to come
and I know we must say good-bye
So, one last look and one last cry
We both knew this wouldn't be our life

Forever, forever
Nothing lasts forever
Forever, forever
Nothing lasts forever
