It takes a lifetime

It's only a minute, an hour, a day
But my love for you will never fade
They say it only takes a lifetime to heal

It was only yesterday
That I could wipe your tears away
And tell you to go out and play
But you're not here

The little things we did, the times we had
The way you looked for me when you were sad
I taught you how to ride your bike
And put on make-up

It was only yesterday
That I could wipe your tears away
And tell you to go out and play
It was only yesterday
That I could look at you and say
I will love you everyday
But you're not here

What will I do now

It was only yesterday
That I could wipe your tears away
And tell you to go out and play
It was only yesterday
That I could look at you and say
I will love you everyday
But you're not here

It only takes a moment that changes you
So I will remember and I'll get through
They say it only takes a lifetime to heal
