lyrics
They ask me how I’m holding up, I tell them that I’m fine, I’m fine
It’s not the truth, but then the truth is that it’s easier to lie
They ask me how I’ve been but they don’t really want to hear the answer
Cause every day is a reminder of the day we said goodbye
Oh… Oh… Oh…
Fall turns into winter, and winter turns to spring
Spring turns into summer, but it doesn’t mean a thing
Now that you’re gone
They say time will make it better, they say time will heal it all
Just prayin’ that I’ll make it ‘til the summer turns to fall
Now that you’re gone
Been learning how to hold it in, been learning how to shove it under
Excuse me while I run away from all this brokenness inside
Can’t stop to think, can’t catch my breath, can’t let the sorrow run me over
I’ll keep on running though I know that there is nowhere left to hide
Oh… Oh… Oh…
Fall turns into winter, and winter turns to spring
Spring turns into summer, but it doesn’t mean a thing
Now that you’re gone
They say time will make it better, they say time will heal it all
Just prayin’ that I’ll make it til the summer turns to fall
They say you’re in a better place
They say it’s time to let you go
They say that there’s a reason everything has come to be
Well, it’s taken all I’ve got to just hold on a little longer ‘cause
There’ll never come a season that can bring you back to me
Spring will turn to summer and then on and on and on
It might take me forever to accept that you are gone…
Heaven help the ones who love, heaven help the ones who’ve lost
It’s only now I’m seeing what a love can really cost Oh…
Fall turns into winter, and winter turns to spring
Spring turns into summer and it still don’t mean a thing
They say time will make it better, they say time will heal it all
Tell me how’m I gonna make it now that summer’s turned to fall
