A beautiful girl said "Tell me your story" It goes something like this'Dateline America in Eighty-two, we were starry-eyed Canadians trying to break through with the big boys Ooh, and make a lotta noise So the Priest came in and led us by the hand on a drive-by rockin' of the promised land and we rode it hard, big stars in our back yard She said "Didn't I see you back on MTV?" I said yeah, it was a long time ago Flying is easy and landing is hard, the thrills go fast and the years go slow You can ride the wind but Nothing Lasts Forever Enjoy the ride, 'cause Nothing Lasts Forever So anyway There we were back again in Eighty-three, it was the Maidens and the Fastway and Coney makes three on the bandstand We were gettin' pretty Outa Hand Lost boys comin' in to take the next town, lookin' for love, looking for the sound of the Rock and Roll dream "Let me here you scream!" Crushing those guitars and punishing the beats, thinkin' it'll never end Hey America! Play us on the radio and put us in the charts So we can come back and do this again You can ride the wind but Nothing Lasts Forever Enjoy the ride, 'cause Nothing Lasts Forever Now Act III of our little play, and things didn't go as planned When the big money put on the squeeze it changed our little band But Friction's sparks flew outa sight, and a flame took hold far away And that's why now on a special night, you can still hear the band play You can ride the wind but Nothing Lasts Forever Enjoy the ride, 'cause Nothing Lasts Forever
