|
All the things you think and say |
|
Float away into space |
|
Done in thought or done in haste |
|
They have no place, they leave no trace |
|
All the things you think and do |
|
Have become a part of you |
|
All your deeds have come to pass |
|
Nothing lasts, nothing lasts |
|
Like a river flowing past your windowpane |
|
Life's never the same |
|
Like the sun you're born to set |
|
You'll die in sin |
|
And be born once again |
|
Now you know, so damn well |
|
That your life is a heaven and a hell |
|
And it's very easy to tell |
|
When you're sick and when you're well |
|
So the secret to this life |
|
Is so very easy to learn |
|
If you ever love another |
|
Never ask for anything in return |
|
Like a river flowing past your windowpane |
|
Life's never the same |
|
Like the sun you're born to set |
|
You'll die in sin |
|
And be born once again |
|
All the things you think and say |
|
Float away into space |
|
Done in thought or done in haste |
|
They have no place, they leave no trace |
|
All the things you think and do |
|
Have become a part of you |
|
All your deeds have come to pass |
|
Nothing lasts, nothing lasts |
