  • The time has come in my life for me to move on
    And get on with my life, my life
    Oh, but I don't regret no
    Every precious moment that we spent
    They were well spent
    Oh girl, yes they were (yes they were)

    Don't be sad, don't be blue
    You have your whole life ahead of you
    Love was here, now it's gone
    So it's time you keep moving on
    Don't take it personal
    Take the bitter with the sweet
    Easy come easy go
    Don't take it personal
    Take the bitter with the sweet
    Some good things come to an end

    No blame, no shame
    It was nice, but sometimes things do change
    We change, but we can still be friends, be friends
    Oh girl you have so much to offer to someone else in their life
    If you reach out, oh girl yes you can, yes you can

    Don't be sad, don't be blue
    You have your whole life ahead of you (oh)
    Love was here, now it's gone
    So it's time you keep moving on
    Don't take it personal
    Take the bitter with the sweet
    Easy come easy go
    Don't take it personal
    Take the bitter with the sweet
    Some good things come to an end

    So long (you know)
    It seems the time has come (so long my love)
    To move on and go our separate ways
    Since we're not going to be lovers anymore
    Well, let's just be friends

    Don't be sad, don't be blue
    You have your whole life ahead of you (oh)
    Love was here, now it's gone
    So it's time you keep moving on (oh)
    Don't take it personal
    Take the bitter with the sweet
    Easy come easy go (easy come easy go baby)
    Don't take it personal
    Take the bitter with the sweet (oh)
    Some good things come to an end (baby)

    Don't take it personal
    Take the bitter with the sweet (baby, baby, baby)
    Easy come easy go (oh)
    Don't take it personal
    Take the bitter with the sweet
    Some good things come to an end (baby) Writer/s: David Conley, David Townsend, Derrick Culler
