[Recitation] Some losses don’t really leave us. And we never truly “let go” in spirit. That’s how love works. This is about a moment when there was nothing left for these hands to hold on to. I don’t know about you, but every so often, I just have to let it hurt… Sit with it awhile… And watch a dark cloud pass through. [Verse 1] Oh, how I hate this, As my sorrows over flow But I feel this pain so deep I just don’t know. [Female Lead] Will I ever be whole? Will the hurt always show? I’ll miss you as long as I live, [Duet Harmony] But the time has come to let you go. [Chorus] Save a little place for me, Wherever your soul may be. Maybe someday we’ll reminisce, Over all we used to know. But for now I face the hardest part, The time has come, and it breaks my heart. The time has come to let you go. [Verse 2] I just can’t believe this How could You be out of time. I accept you’ve drifted on, To the river’s farther side. And trust the hand that’s guiding you, Though I stumble here below. When I can’t see the greater plan My weakness begins to show. [Final Chorus] Save a little place for me, Wherever your soul may be. Maybe someday we’ll reminisce, Or share a new thing to know. But for now I’ll whisper through my tears, “How I love you still, and for all the years.” Though the time has come to let you go. [Coda – Final Thought] See this time has come; And I fail to find the mercy In the unforgiving flow. Oh, how I hate this— That I have to let you go.
