There's Never A Forever Thing

The speaker comforts someone who is upset or afraid, promising to stay close through the night. The mood is tender and reassuring, though the repeated promise lasts only until morning. As the lyrics develop, the comfort feels sincere, but it is set against the idea that nothing lasts forever.

“Through the night” and “till the first signs of light” give the support a clear time limit: the speaker will be there for this difficult stretch, not necessarily forever. “Wipe your tears away” is both a gentle, practical image and a way of asking the loved one to feel less alone. The line “There’s never a forever thing” suggests that even important bonds or moments may change or end.

That line can sound comforting—pain and fear will not last forever—or sad, because the speaker may be acknowledging that the relationship itself cannot be permanent. The lyrics do not explain why the other person is crying, or whether the speaker can truly be present beyond the night. The repeated “It’s all right” may offer genuine reassurance, even as the promise to “try so hard” hints that being there may not be easy or fully within the speaker’s control.
