You said the night that you met me, was the night you met yourself
Pale blue eyes looking back at you, no past to regret
It's almost a miracle, just to be here at all
Watching the sun on the horizon, blink and watch it fall
It's not for nothing, this life
And I know this when I look in your eyes
You said nothing lasts forever, not even the stars above
But that's what makes it all worthwhile
The roads were long and lonely, from Texas to Idaho
We were travelin' through the country, thousands of miles from home
I was so young then, I didn't know much at all
But I'd always be home again whenever you would call
It's not for nothing, this life
And I know this when I look in your eyes
You said nothing lasts forever, not even the stars above
But that's what makes it all worthwhile
