There's Never A Forever Thing

A-Ha · 25 [2010]

(Pal Waaktaar)



Dearest...

Dry your eyes now

Don't you cry

It's all right



Lie back

Leave the light on

It's all right, dear



I'll be here through the night

With you till the first signs of light

Say the word and I'll come tonight



It's all right now

Don't you cry now



Hush...

Wipe your tears away

There's never a forever thing



All through the night

I'll try so hard to be there somehow

With you till the first signs of light

Say the word and I'll come

Tonight



Darling, don't you

Cry.....

There's Never A Forever Thing

Released on the 2010 compilation album 25, this track by Norwegian synth-pop trio A-Ha blends their signature melodic pop sensibility with a reflective tone. The song features the group's characteristic vocal harmonies and synthesizer-driven production, characteristic of their work during the late 1980s and early 1990s. While the lyrics explore themes of impermanence and the fleeting nature of relationships, the recording itself stands as a testament to the band's enduring ability to craft catchy, emotionally resonant pop anthems. It serves as a bridge between their classic era and their later reissues, maintaining the high production values that defined their global success.
