Nothing Lasts - Matthew Sweet

If one could stop time

Or make it up

If two could realize

The best of luck

If I could locate

God above

And you only wanted

To be loved

Then I’d try to hang on

To the past

But you know

That nothin'

Oh no, nothin' lasts

Nothin' lasts

It’s time to move on

Let the past go

I’ve waited for you here

But you never showed

Although I asked you

To let me know

I only felt

A cold wind blow

While I tried to hang on

To the past

But you know

That nothin'

Oh no, nothin' lasts

Nothing’s in your way

Now you can stand

Right up and run

Wouldn’t even change things

If you took back

What you’d done

I have tried to hang

On to the past

But I couldn’t keep my grasp

'Cause nothin' lasts

Nothin' lasts

Nothin' lasts

Nothin' lasts
