01 Nothing Stays The Same

you say you must go
but will you ever return
to this place i long to be
and to see that view again
a perfect childhood memory
captured in my mind

and if i ever returned
would it be the same
as if i never left
would it still be the place
i knew and loved
in the years of my innocence

and as seasons pass
as they surely must
could i tire of the beauty
in this paradise mine
to live here forever
where it all stays the same

and if this was forever
where would it be
and if this was forever
where would you be,
(would you be here with me)
