It is not about the vaccine's lasting. The vaccine disappears from the body pretty quickly. It is about your body's immune system learning the virus structure and being able to respond to it.
People get the flu many times over their life and are not immune to more cases. Your body is just not that good at fighting respiratory tract infections. At least the upper respiratory tract kind.
The vaccine is very good at protecting people from severe cases that get into the lower respiratory tract.
