Some Things Last a Long
Time
(verse progression 1)
Your picture
is
still
on my wall
on my wall
The colors
are
bright
bright
as ever
(verse progression 2)
The
red is strong
The blue is pure
(Chorus)
Some
things last a long time
Some things last a long time
Your
picture
is still
on my wall
on my wall
I think
about
you
often
often
I won’t forget
all the things
we did
Some things last a long time
Some things last a long
time
It’s funny
but it’s true
And it’s true
but
it’s not funny
Time comes and goes
all of the while
I
still think of you
Some things last a long time
Your
picture
is still
on my wall
on my wall
The colors
are
bright
bright
as ever
The things we did
I can’t
forget
Some things last a lifetime
Some things last a
lifetime
Some things last a lifetime
(end on verse
progression 1
