To Let A Good Thing Die

歌詞

You can't ask a tree to blossom if it isn't spring Don't leave the house at midnight And expect the birds to sing If you're lookin' for a reason, you needn't even try Sometimes it's time to let a good thing die You can't conjure up more money If you've only got a dime No use prayin' for your younger days If you're running out of time You can take a horse to water But you can't teach fish to fly Sometimes it's time to let a good thing die You can't light a fire from nothing Or clap and make snow fall You can't summon love up in your heart If it isn't there at all Life isn't like the movies but it sure will make you cry When it dawns on you it's time to say goodbye You can't drum up the heartbeats Of loved ones come to pass Stop wishing for forever 'Cause nothing ever lasts If it's keeping you from sleepin' Wipe the tear from your eye 'Cause sometimes it's time to let a good thing die
