Lessons to be learned
The old letters to be burned

All can’t be understood
Some things are to be lost
For good

Wrinkles on my face
Bruises of your years on hands

We rarely learn it once
So we have to do it twice
By chance

Mistakes to be found
Be right or to be kind

All can’t be overlooked
But there’re things that we should
For good

Teach us till we die
How to say good-bye

Nothing to bring back
The words and yet their lack
Can hurt
