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.
