to let a good thing die

[00:09.76] You can't ask a tree to blossom if it isn't spring

[00:16.77] Don't leave the house at midnight

[00:19.77] And expect the birds to sing

[00:23.02] If you're lookin' for a reason, you needn't even try

[00:29.27] Sometimes it's time to let a good thing die

[00:37.02] You can't conjure up more money

[00:40.27] If you've only got a dime

[00:43.02] No use prayin' for your younger days

[00:46.02] If you're running out of time

[00:49.27] You can take a horse to water

[00:52.52] But you can't teach fish to fly

[00:55.77] Sometimes it's time to let a good thing die

[01:03.02] You can't light a fire from nothing

[01:06.76] Or clap and make snow fall

[01:10.02] You can't summon love up in your heart

[01:13.02] If it isn't there at all

[01:15.65] Life isn't like the movies but it sure will make you cry

[01:23.77] When it dawns on you it's time to say goodbye

[01:44.01] You can't drum up the heartbeats

[01:47.77] Of loved ones come to pass

[01:51.02] Stop wishing for forever

[01:54.52] 'Cause nothing ever lasts

[01:57.76] If it's keeping you from sleepin'

[02:00.77] Wipe the tear from your eye

[02:05.02] 'Cause sometimes it's time to let a good thing die
