Nothing good can stay
All the precious things can't stay
It's gone by the end of the day

That love that once sparked
A now dying flame
Nothing gold can stay

That friendship once strong
The one promised to last forever
It's gone by the end of the day

Your happiness once bright
Now gone in the night
Nothing gold can stay

That promise you told me
The one I thought you can keep
It's gone by the end of the day

The seasons fade
And your not the same
Nothing gold can stay
It's gone by the end of the day
