Hearts in Decline

Nothing lasts forever, I know that this is true
But I never knew how true it was 'til I was losing you
Oh maybe I'm a dreamer or maybe I'm a fool
But I never thought that love could be this careless or this 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 gonna to take some time

Now 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

Oh, there ain't no easy answers
You know there's only shades of gray
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 gonna to take some time, ya know it's gonna to take some time
(It's gonna take some time)
