Forever After All

A cold beer's got 12 ounces A good truck's got maybe 300,000 You only get so much until it's gone Duracells in a Maglite A needle drop on a 45 Are the kinda things that only last so long

When the new wears off, and they get to getting old Sooner or later, time's gonna take its toll

They say, "Nothing lasts forever" But they ain't seen us together Or the way the moonlight dances in your eyes Just a t-shirt in the kitchen With no make-up and a million other things That I could look at my whole life A love like that makes a man have second thoughts Maybe some things last forever after all

FM station on the outskirts Blue jeans after years of shift work All fading out like I always knew they would The strings on this guitar The first love lost on a young heart Those things are gonna break after the getting's good

'Cause the new wears off, and they get to getting old Yeah, sooner or later, time's gonna take its toll

They say, "Nothing lasts forever" But they ain't seen us together Or the way the moonlight dances in your eyes Just a t-shirt in the kitchen With no make-up and a million other things That I could look at my whole life A love like that makes a man have second thoughts Maybe some things last forever after all

Well, they say, "Nothing lasts forever" But they ain't seen us together Or the way the moonlight dances in your eyes And I know there'll be that moment The good Lord calls one of us home and One won't have the other by their side But heaven knows that, that won't last too long Maybe some things last forever after all

After all
