My daughter has a best friend, who's about to move away
And it kills me as a mother, to see her feel this kind of pain
This is her first great loss but it won't be her last
I cannot make it stop and so I say

I know you wish there was a way to slow the hands of time
But when you truly love someone, you never say goodbye
'Cause they're woven in the fabric of the person you've become
It is impossible, impossible to lose
The ones you love

My grandpa's name is Henry and Audrey was his wifе
After fifty years togethеr, she was still the love of his whole life
Before her final breath, she reached and took his hand
He bowed to kiss her head and heard her say

I know you wish there was a way to slow the hands of time
But when you truly love someone, you never say goodbye
'Cause they're woven in the fabric of the person you've become
It is impossible, impossible to lose
The ones you love

I know the winds of change will blow again
I feel it in my heart, I know it in my head
And though I can't avoid the road that lies ahead
I choose these words instead

Even though there's not a way to slow the hands of time
When you truly love someone, you never say goodbye
'Cause they're woven in the fabric of the person you've become
It is impossible, impossible to lose
It is impossible, impossible to lose
The ones you love
The ones you love
