Time Will Heal a Broken Heart

Someone broke your heart, you say,
And now you want to hide away.

Hiding doesn't solve a thing,
It only prolongs suffering.

Admit your pain but don't despair.
Surround yourself with friends who care.

Time will mend your broken heart,
And soon you'll be ready for a fresh start.

The pain and sorrow will fade away,
And you'll live to love another day.
