[Verse 1]
These are my words of wisdom
I pass down from me to you
The road that you are lost on
Has but one path to choose
And although your soul lies heavy
It's a weight that you must bear
Cause you will carry their loss with you always
But please don't despair

[Chorus]
Just wait for a sign
And the pain in your heart will die
But I can't lie, no
It never leaves, it never leaves
It just gets easier with time
So just wait for a sign
And the pain in your heart will die
But I can't lie, no
It never leaves, it never leaves
Cause we're the ones they leave behind

[Verse 2]
This is a trial we all must take
To watch a loved one slip away
Into the peaceful rest of death
Where pain is lifted
So you may ask me "Does it get easier than this?"
And all I can say to you is
"Take no love for granted and cherish your family
Cause the hands of time wait for no one
Like they didn't wait for me"
[Chorus]
Just wait for a sign
And the pain in your heart will die
But I can't lie, no
It never leaves, it never leaves
It just gets easier with time
So just wait for a sign
And the pain in your heart will die
But I can't lie, no
It never leaves, it never leaves
Cause we're the ones they leave behind

[Bridge]
I'm so sorry that you're hurting
But please take my words as truth
Keep your head above the water
And make them proud of you

[Outro Chorus]
So just wait for a sign
And the pain in your heart will die
But I can't lie, no
It never leaves, it never leaves
It just gets easier with time
So just wait for a sign
And the pain in your heart will die
But I can't lie, no
It never leaves, it never leaves
Cause we're the ones they leave behind
