Sittin' on the beach, lookin' at the water
Thinking 'bout how you're really gone
And how it stings the way you left me here
Why'd I try loving you at all?
But it's not your fault, it's in the water
See how it's here and now it's there?
You don't believe me, watch the sun, its rise and fall
And there's a chill now in the air
Nothing ever stays
Nothing ever stays
Not your hair, not your face
Nothing ever stays
So roll me over, roll me under
Just like the sand upon the shore
Until I don't know if I'm coming or I'm going
And I don't care anymore
'Cause nothing ever stays
Nothing ever stays
Not your hair, not your face
Nothing ever stays
You'll never find what you're looking for
You'll always be moving on
You'll never find what you're looking for
You'll always be moving on, and on, and on
'Cause nothing ever stays
Nothing ever stays
Not your hair, not your face
Nothing ever stays
Nothing ever stays (Nothing really ever stays)
Nothing ever stays (No it really never does)
Not your hair, not your face
Nothing ever stays
Nothing ever stays (First a tadpole, now a frog)
Nothing ever stays (First a tree and then a log)
Not your hair, not your face (Now it's summer, now it's fall)
Nothing ever...
One day you're here and then you're gone
