I understand if you've gotta leave
You can't tell people how to grieve
Somebody's on your mind
And it takes time
For broken hearts to mend
There'll be a whole lot of pain
But it ain't the end
Pictures in Bibles can't help us now
When your mind is an altar that's bringing you down
There's somebody on your mind
And it takes time
For broken hearts to mend
There'll be a whole lot of pain
But it ain't the end
I believe there's a flame
That casts light and shadows all the same
And if you believe that it can cast its spell
Then what will be, only time can tell
So I understand if you've gotta leave
