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.
