Colds are caused by coronaviruses and rhinoviruses, and there is a bunch of them. So the reason you get them often is not the lack of immunity, but because you can get infected but yet another virus you have no immunity for.

Even if each peak is always caused by different strain we can pretty much rule out lifetime immunity.
