Wanting you, and watching every move
Turns me all over
Like a first time lover's woo

My heart's your heart
And every time you hit that door
There's a chance in a million
I won't see you anymore

Though I never want to leave your side
But we've got to realize we're...

[Chorus]
Here today and gone tomorrow
(Nothing ever lasts forever)
Nothing lasts forever and a day
'Cause we're here today and gone tomorrow
This is too good to be real
I never want to say good-bye

I reminisce and savor every kiss
Every moment
For in a moment we'll be gone

I cherish you, and when the night is through
Starting all over
Spending it with you

It's so precious in the time we spend
When it all comes to an end we're...

[Chorus]
Here today and gone tomorrow
(Nothing ever lasts forever)
Nothing lasts forever and a day
'Cause we're here today and gone tomorrow
Your love is unreal
I never want to say good-bye

When I look into your eyes
I thank God that I'm alive
I can never say I've missed
All of the reasons we're...

[Chorus]
Here today and gone tomorrow
(Nothing ever lasts forever)
Nothing ever lasts
Here today and gone tomorrow
Your love's too good to be real
It's too good to be real, baby

(Chorus repeat & ad lib out)
