Love That Lasts (Instrumental) - Anthony Clint Jr.

I found a guy, told me I was a star He held the door, held my hand in the dark And he's perfect on paper, but he's lying to my face Does he think that I'm the kind of girl who needs to be saved? And there's one more boy, he's from my past We fell in love, but it didn't last 'Cause the second I figure it out, he pushes me away And I won't fight for love if you won't meet me halfway And I say that I'm through But this song's still for you All I want is love that lasts Is all I want too much to ask? Is it something wrong with me? All I want is a good guy Are my expectations far too high? Try my best, but what can I say? All I have is myself at the end of the day But shouldn't that be enough for me? Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh And I miss the days when I was young and naive I thought the perfect guy would come and find me Now happy ever after, it don't come so easily All I want is love that lasts Is all I want too much to ask? Is it something wrong with me? Oh-ooh All I want is a good guy Are my expectations far too high? Try my best, but what can I say? All I have is myself at the end of the day And all I want is for that to be okay

Yeah, I got a new boy who looks like you Dark brown hair with a cool tattoo He's got green eyes that fade to blue I tell him that I love him but I know it ain't true You got a new girl who looks like me Nothin' in her head but she's so damn pretty With the brown eyes she looks at you You tell her that you love her but I know it ain't true Why do we act like this works? Are we just making it worse? I wanted to be your first and last But baby that first love never lasts Are we so wrapped up in the memory? Are we both okay? We pretend to be It was only perfect in the past 'Cause a first love never lasts, no No, a first love never lasts, oh Got me in bed with a stranger With somebody who looks like you Shouldn't have fell for the danger But he feels like déjà vu Why do we act like this works? Are we just making it worse? I wanted to be your first and last But baby that first love never lasts Are we so wrapped up in the memory? Are we both okay? We pretend to be It was only perfect in the past 'Cause a first love never lasts, no No, a first love never lasts, oh No

Your mercy found me upon the broken road And lifted me beyond my failing Into Your glory my sin and shame dissolved And now forever Yours I'll stand In love never to end To call You more than Lord Glorious friend So I throw my life upon all that You are 'Cause I know You gave it all for me And when all else fades my soul will dance with You Where the love lasts forever Your mercy found me Your mercy found me upon the broken road And lifted me beyond my failing Into Your glory my sin and shame dissolved And now forever Yours I'll stand In love never to end To call You more than Lord Glorious friend So I throw my life upon all that You are 'Cause I know You gave it all for me And when all else fades my soul will dance with You Where the love lasts forever So I throw my life upon all that You are 'Cause I know You gave it all for me And when all else fades my soul will dance with You Where the love lasts forever And forever I will sing Lord, forever I will sing Of how You gave Your life away Just to save me, Lord, You saved me And forever I will sing Lord, forever I will sing Of how You gave Your life away Just to save me, Lord, You saved me So I throw my life upon all that You are 'Cause I know You gave it all for me And when all else fades my soul will dance with You Where the love lasts forever So I throw my life upon all that You are 'Cause I know You gave it all for me And when all else fades my soul will dance with You Where the love lasts forever With You, where the love lasts forever With You, where the love lasts forever I'll dance with You, where the love lasts forever

I pray to God To stop these thoughts It works for me Can't you see? Now I know that I'm better I'm writing this letter To my past self Sitting on the shelf Nothing lasts It's for the past I won't stay here I won't stay there 'Cause now I'm happy For you have changed me I am so thankful No longer painful
