Band Perry Dear Departed Lyrics

Falling is a feeling that I never wanna feel again
Haunted is a feeling that I never wanna feel again
Dear departed

My friends, we've come to bury
The dear departed me
With the death of youth comes a cold, hard truth
Can someone comfort me?

We've gathered here to remember
The kid that I used to be
We've got colorful hats with those rubberband straps
And alcoholic drinks

Wear some dark clothes
We're in mourning
But we're gon party 'til the morning comes
A celebration
Maybe a seance
For all our innocence lost

Nothing lasts forever
You can't hold on
Nothing lasts forever
So just have fun

One time I said goodbye to somebody
Who taught me how to tie my shoes
If it was not for him I would not have been
And my laces would still be loose Some precious things just slip away
Some things you never find
But you've got to dance with the things you've lost
And I've got to dance with mine

Nothing lasts forever
You can't hold on
Nothing lasts forever
So just move on
Die, feel, cry, heal
Nothing lasts forever
So just have fun

Wear your dark shades
We're in mourning
But we're gonna party
Til the morning comes

A celebration
Or standing ovation
For all of our innocence lost

Nothing lasts forever
You can't hold on
Nothing lasts forever
What's done is done
Die. Feel. Cry. Heal.
Nothing lasts forever
So just have fun

Falling is a feeling that I never wanna feel again
Haunted is a feeling that I never wanna feel again
Dear departed
