Lyrics (#individ) Back to listing Parent individual File Nothing's Forever Forever original Lyrics Nothing’s Forever Forever by Paul Reisler with Terri Allard and 3rd grade Burnley Moran Elementary I went back to where my old school used to be Last time I saw it was 1933 I was in Miss Booker’s class From my 1 st grade to my last year in school Just one room and a wood burning stove There were no lights, just a big tall window ( window ) I’m watching my past as it all turns to dust Nothin g ’s forever, forever I’m watching my past as it all turns to dust As it must ‘Cause nothin g ’s forever, forever I went back to that place, all that was left Were bushes and brambles and three tiny steps There was only one book left around I remember she read it out loud. to us all I still see the smile on her kind, lovely face I can still hear her voice slowly fade away as it echoes ( echoes ) I’m watching my past as it all turns to dust Nothin g ’s forever, forever I’m watching my past as it all turns to dust As it must ‘Cause nothin g ’s forever, forever I called all my friends All that were left And we decided to rebuild our school Now there are 200 kids My son teaches math And we follow that timeless rule Memories are forever Memories are forever I’m watching my past as it all turns to dust Nothin g ’s forever, forever I’m watching my past as it all turns to dust As it must ‘Cause nothin g ’s forever, forever nothin g ’s forever, forever Do you really want to delete this item?
