We don't want to say goodbye, we don't want to feel that empty
But it's time to face the dawn head on
When there's something in the wind when the days go getting shorter
And the nights run cold and clear down here
Taking each new day to give what we need to do our part
To keep learning how to live with a lifelong broken heart
And we never will forget it's a privilege to remember
The sound of days gone past will last
We can see you in the stars come some vivid night in November
With the last few leaves that fall recall
Oh you beautiful one so clearly a gift
Life had designs of its own to set you adrift
So go lightly where you must travel soft upon new wings
You will never be alone go on
When we cannot understand when we cannot find new meaning
We'll seek out the ones you loved and love
Chorus +:
Were just learning how to live with a lifelong broken heart
