Tim O'brien - Time To Learn lyrics

The hand is cold that once held mine I can't believe you've really left this world behind I can wait and I can hope I'll get over this in time It takes time to learn when someone's gone for good They're not comin' 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 a chance to say goodbye to you Words unsaid and things undone We'd just begun and now we'll never see them through It takes time to learn when someone's gone for good They're not comin' back like you wish they would In the empty hours when you miss them so It takes time to learn to let them go It takes time to learn that you're gone for good You're not comin' 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
