Hearts In Decline Lyrics - Fogelberg Dan

Nothing lasts forever 

I know that this is true 

But I never knew how true it was 

'Til I was losing you. 

Maybe I'm a dreamer 

Or maybe I'm a fool 

But I never thought 

That love could be 

So careless or so cruel. 

You wrestle with the reasons 

But the reasons never rhyme 

Or comfort when the 

Heart is in decline 

And it doesn't really matter 

If it's chance or it's design 

It's going to take some time. 

Love don't play no favorites 

You know there's no one that's immune 

Cause she changes her demeanor 

Like the phases of the moon. 

There ain't no easy answers 

You know there's only shades of grey 

But when it's love or it's survival 

I guess you gotta get away. 

The days stretch on forever 

And the nights are so unkind 

And endless when the 

Heart is in decline. 

And it doesn't really matter 

If it's chance or it's design 

It's going to take some time. 

It's going to take some time.
