Some Good Things Never Last

It's three in the morning You're nowhere in sight And all that I wanted was To be with you Tonight I've watched love get closer And then fade away I've seen you believe in me I've seen you trying to stay But what good is holding on When you know That all you can think about Is letting go They say if you love someone Then set them free If they come back again Then in the end It was meant to be I thought we were lovers I thought we were friends I guess when reality Steps in The dreaming ends We live for the future We learn from the past No matter how hard we try Some good things never last All you can think about Is letting go Be true to yourself my love That's all I ever wanted you to be Just don't forget to smile When you think of me I'll reach for the stars I have got them in sight There's someone who really needs me Out there in the night We'll live for the future We'll learn form the past No matter how hard we try Some good things never last Why can't they last? --- Some Good Things Never Last - Barbra Streisand
