What's Forever For - Michael Martin Murphey

I’ve been lookin' at people

And how they change with the times

And lately all I’ve been seein' are people

Throwin' love away and losing their minds

Maybe it’s me who’s gone crazy

'Cause I can’t understand why

All these lovers keep hurtin' each other

When love is so hard to come by

So what’s the glory in living?

Doesn’t anybody ever stay together anymore?

And if love never lasts forever

Tell me what’s forever for?

I’ve been listenin' to people

And they say love is the key

And it’s not my way to let them lead me astray

It’s only that I want to believe

I see love-hungry people

Tryin' their best to survive

While in their hands is a dying romance

And they’re not even tryin' to keep it alive

So what’s the glory in living?

Doesn’t anybody ever stay together anymore?

And if love never lasts forever

Tell me what’s forever for?

So what’s the glory in living?

Doesn’t anybody ever stay together anymore?

And if love never lasts forever

Tell me what’s forever for?
