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
