The hand is cold that once held mine

I can't believe you've really left this world behind

I can't wait I can't hope I'll get over you in time

It takes time to learn when someone's gone for good

They're not coming back like you wish they would

In the empty hours when you miss them so

Then it's time to learn to let them go.



Your last hours, we never knew

We never had the chance to say goodbye to you

Words unsaid, things undone 

We just begun and now will never see them through 

It takes time to learn when someone's gone for good

They're not coming back like you wish they would

In the empty hours when you miss them so

Then it's time to learn to let them go.



It takes time to learn that you have gone for good

Your not coming back like i wish you would

In the empty hours when I miss you so

Then it's time to learn to let you go

The hand is cold that once held mine.
