D#              G#       D#      G#         D#
You can't ask a tree to blossom if it isn't spring
 D#               G#       D#            G#
Don't leave the house at midnight and expect
              A#
the birds to sing
          Cm            G7           D#           F7
If you're looking for a reason, you needn't even try
   G#             D#    F7   A#7         D#
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
