"Nothing Lasts Forever" lyrics

The hope that I was holding, the hope I held inside my soul
Well I gave it to the all
It was time to let it go
To see what new was coming, see what new coming through
Breaking down and breaking through
Breaking down and breaking through

'Cause nothing lasts forever, nothing's ever as it seems, yeah, yeah
Show me ochre, show me scenes
Painting colours in my dreams
No, nothing lasts forever, nothing's ever as it seems
Show me ochre, show me scenes, yeah, yeah
Painting colours in my dreams

Laid bare by the solitude and the ocean
Stripped back again by the wisdom in her tides
Made whole again in the fullness of the forest
And I'm going there, yes, I'm going there, in time

The people that I have been, the boy who looked into the soul
The one who couldn't let it go, now
The man who said he had it all
Lover, king, magician, warrior, protect the queen
Well I call them back to me, the many beings I have been

'Cause nothing lasts forever, nothing's ever as it seems, yeah, yeah
Show me ochre, show me scenes, yeah, yeah
Painting colours in my dreams
Hey chicamo my lover, I see you moving in your flow now
I see you reaching as you grow and
I know it's time to let you go

Laid bare by the solitude and the ocean
Stripped back again by the wisdom in her tides
Made whole again in the fullness of the forest
And I'm going there, yes, I'm going there, in time

'Cause nothing lasts forever, nothing's ever as it seems, yeah, yeah
Show me ochre, show me scenes, yeah, yeah
Painting colours in my dreams
No, nothing lasts forever, nothing's ever as it seems
Show me ochre, show me scenes
Painting colours in my dreams

Because I love you like an ocean, I loved you like the forest grows
Learning how to let it show, now
Learning how to learn you know
