|
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
|
