One Of The First Things We Have To Learn
No matter how long she held on
to those people she lost
No matter how hard she tried
to get them back
Not one of them ever
returned to her
We must be careful
not to relinquish our future
to people who won't
be there
One of the first things
we have to let go of
is not being able to
let go of
anybody
