lyrics

Nothing is forever till it's gone, gone, gone
Nothing is forever till it's gone.
From the father comes the son, and it's that same old song,
Always been repeating all along.

Painted symbols in a valley
Silhouettes are etched in stone
When all the first ones here were ravaged,
Now a memory of a stolen home,
Now a memory of a home.

Nothing is forever till it's gone, gone, gone
Nothing is forever till it's gone.
From the father comes the son, and it's that same old song,
Always been repeating all along.

And the rambling tribes of Israel
Searched the desert for a home,
For to build their holy temple,
Now a lonely wall of stone,
Now a lonely wall of stone.

Nothing is forever till it's gone, gone, gone
Nothing is forever till it's gone.
From the father comes the son, and it's that same old song,
Always been repeating all along.

Some say Jesus is the answer
To that ancient lord of old,
As it was in the beginning,
So it will be when the stories told,
So it will be when it's told.

Nothing is forever till it's gone, gone, gone
Nothing is forever till it's gone.
From the father comes the son, and it's that same old song,
Always been repeating all along.
