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 looking 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 praying 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 sleeping, wipe the tear from your eye
´Cause sometimes, it´s time to let a good thing die
