I don't have the lyrics, but you will find the song recorded on Tim O'Brien and the O'Boys 'Oh Boy! Oh Boy!' Sugar Hill SHCD 3808

TIME TO LEARN
Pat Alger / Tim O'Brien
As sung by Maura O'Connell on "Don't I Know" (2006)

1. The hand is cold that once held mine.
I can't believe you've gone and left this world behind.
But I can wait; I can hope
I'll get over this in time.

CHORUS: It takes time to learn when someone's gone for good.
They're not comin' back like you wish they would.
In the empty hours when you miss them so,
Then it's time to learn to let them go.

2. Your last hours I never knew.
I never had a chance to say goodbye to you.
Words unsaid and things undone,
We'd just begun and now we'll never see them through. CHORUS TWICE


[Also sung by:
Tim O'Brien and the O'Boys on "Oh Boy! O'Boy!" (1993) and "Before Their Time, Vol. 1" (1999)
Cathy Fink & Marcy Marxer on "Voice on the Wind" (1997)
Mary Duff on "Heartbreaker" (2004)
