[00:05.73]This is for my people who just lost somebody
[00:09.08]Your best friend, your baby, your man or your lady
[00:12.65]Put your hand way up high
[00:15.29]We won't never say bye (no no no)
[00:19.64]Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and cousins
[00:23.19]This is for my people who lost their grandmothers
[00:26.67]Lift your head to the sky
[00:29.28]'Cause we won't never say bye
[00:33.68]As a child, there were the times
[00:37.10]I didn't get it, but you kept me alive
[00:40.33]I didn't know why you didn't show up sometimes on Sunday mornings
[00:44.27]And I missed you, but I'm glad we talked through
[00:47.56]All them grown folk things' separation brings
[00:51.16]You never let me know it, you never let it show because you loved me and obviously
[00:57.81]There's so much more left to say if you were with me today, face to face
[01:02.64]I never knew I could hurt like this
[01:06.12]And everyday life goes on, I wish I could talk to you for a while
[01:10.88]Miss you, but I try not to cry
[01:12.71]As time goes by
[01:16.75]And it's true that you've reached the better place
[01:20.18]Still, I'd give the world to see your face
[01:23.43]And be right here next to you
[01:25.09]But it's like you've gone too soon and the hardest thing to do is say bye
[01:30.65]Bye, bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
[01:34.46]Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
[01:38.11]Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
[01:41.98]Bye bye
[01:44.07]And you never got a chance to see how good I've done
[01:47.69]And you never got to see me back at number one
[01:51.21]I wish that you were here to celebrate together
[01:54.60]I wish that we could spend the holidays together
[01:58.32]I remember when you used to tuck me in at night
[02:01.79]With the teddy bear you gave me that I held so tight
[02:05.36]I thought you were so strong you'd make it through whatever
[02:08.82]It's so hard to accept the fact you're gone forever
[02:13.13]I never knew I could hurt like this
[02:16.75]And everyday life goes on, I wish I could talk to you for a while
[02:21.30]Miss you, but I try not to cry
[02:23.81]As time goes by
[02:27.34]And it's true that you've reached the better place
[02:30.80]Still, I'd give the world to see your face
[02:33.95]And be right here next to you
[02:35.62]But it's like you've gone too soon and the hardest thing to do is say bye
[02:41.27]Bye, bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
[02:45.51]Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
[02:48.93]Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
[02:52.62]Bye bye
[02:54.73]This is for my people who just lost somebody
[02:58.11]Your best friend, your baby, your man or your lady
[03:02.04]Put your hand way up high
[03:04.58]We won't never say bye (no no no)
[03:09.00]Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers, friends and cousins
[03:12.58]This is for my people who lost their grandmothers
[03:16.08]Lift your head to the sky
[03:18.75]'Cause we won't never say bye bye
[03:23.74]Never knew I could hurt like this (I never knew it)
[03:27.49]Every day life goes on, I wish I could talk to you for a while
[03:32.04]Miss you, but I try not to cry
[03:34.41]As time goes by
[03:37.99]And it's true that you've reached the better place
[03:41.25]Still, I'd give the world to see your face
[03:44.62]And be right here next to you
[03:47.02]And the hardest thing to do is say bye bye (bye bye, bye bye, bye bye)
[03:55.24]It's hard to say bye bye, bye bye, bye bye (bye bye, bye bye, bye bye)
[03:59.48]So come on, somebody sing it with me
[04:03.14]Wave your hands up high, hey (bye bye, bye bye, bye bye)
[04:07.48]'Cause this is for my people who just lost somebody (bye bye, bye bye, bye bye)
[04:11.04](Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye) So this is for everybody
[04:14.74](Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye) Just kept your head to the sky
[04:17.89](Bye, bye) We won't never say bye bye
