There is nothing left of me,
There is nothing that you see,
All I am is memory,
And that is all you will be.
Nothing ever lasts forever.

Everything that I have won,
All the hearts I have shunned,
Like a ghost I leave you stunned,
Alone in bed, wretched, feeling numb.
Nothing ever lasts forever.

Looking at me with mourning eyes,
I know your pain as you cry,
My thirst for love, my need to fly,
My freedom, my soul's desire.
Nothing ever lasts forever.
