If a love as strong as ours, couldn't make it all the way
Can anything make sense at all?
If a love so deep and true,
Couldn't stand the test of time
Then Mount Everest could slide and Jerusalem could fall

Is nothing sacred anymore? Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people use to keep
When love was worth fighting for?

If we can say goodbye, if we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?

I can hear the final words
Every sentence that was said
Don't know what turned our lives around

It doesn't matter who was right
There's no justice in a dream
Never thought a heart could break without making any sound

Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people use to keep
When love was worth fighting for?

If we can say goodbye, if we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say goodbye
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?

Our love was as certain as the dawn
As solid and safe as any love could be

Our love was a star to wish upon
And you thought that I'd saved you
Could've sworn that you saved me (sworn that you saved me)

Is nothing sacred anymore? Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people use to keep
When love was worth fighting for?

If we can say goodbye, if we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?

Is nothing sacred anymore? Is forever just another word?
Is a promise something people use to keep
When love was worth fighting for?

If we can say goodbye, if we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?
If we can say goodbye
If we can say goodbye
Is nothing sacred anymore?

Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is nothing sacred anymore?
Is nothing sacred anymore?

    So much energy in this song. You're right, it gives goose bumps and shivers when you've felt a love so deep and true. How can anything make sense at all if that would stop. :(
