Nothing's For Keeps

Was it the world that you gave to me
Was it love, or a lesson for me
When the table’s turning
And the fire’s still burning
Would you come out
From underneath

What was the last thing you said to me
Nothing’s for keeps
Just figured out
What that meant to me
When the table's turning
And the fire keeps burning inside
Would you lay me down
And look in my eyes

And even though the writing’s on the wall
We could rise until we fall
Never mind the ties we’ll cut them all
Even though we stand to gain nothing at all
And even though the writings on the wall
We could rise until we fall
Never mind the ties we’ll cut them all
Even though we stand to gain nothing at all

Was it the way that you savored me
Every last piece
We found our souls
Safely under the sheets
When the table’s turning
‘'Cause my heart keeps yearning for you
Is it too late
Should we admit defeat

And nothing’s for keeps
No, no, nothing’s for keeps
Nothing at all
We could rise
We could rise
‘Till we fall
