 I've  been looking  at people  and  how they change  with the times;
 And  lately all  I've been seeing  are people
 Throwing  love away and losing their  minds;
 Maybe  it's me  that's gone crazy,  'Cause  I can't figure  out why;
 All  these lovers  keep hurting  each other,
 When  good love is so hard to come  by;
 So  what's the glory  in living?
 Doesn't  anybody  ever stay together  anymore?
 And  if love never  lasts  forever, tell  me What's  Forever For?
 I've  been listening  to people  and  they say love is  the key;
 And  it's not my way  to let them lead  me astray;
 It's  only that I want to believe;
 I  see love hungry  people tryin' their best  to survive,
 While  in their head they  dream of romance,
 If  they can keep  it alive;
 So,  what's the glory  in living?
 Doesn't  anybody  ever  stay together  anymore?
