Let It Last

©2011 Catie Curtis and Fred Wilhelm

I was born under a lucky star
At least that's how it feels so far
No one wants to know what's around the bend
The coffee's on the sun is out
I don't wanna think about
The way they say that all good things must end.

I know it can't last
I know it can't last
I know it can't last
All I ask is let it last a little longer

My parents live where I grew up
And still have boxes of my stuff
When I go there I say I'm going home
In lawn chairs drinking lemonade
we catch up on the day to day
a world with them is the only one I've known

I know it can't last
I know it can't last
I know it can't last
All I ask is let it last a little longer
Let it last, let it last, let it last a little longer

Birthdays, anniversaries,
All the best and worst in these
Another year will be gone before you know
But baby when we have those days
We can't get out of our own way
Don't forget this too will come and go

You know it won't last
You know it won't last
You know it won't last

I know it can't last
I know it can't last
I know it can't last
And all I ask is let it last a little longer
Let it last, let it last, let it last a little longer
