Don’t know what you’ve got ’til it’s gone
The thrill of the chase then it’s gone Only the hurt to prove that it ever went on And life is a wonderful thing When you’re humming the words to a love song Do what you want to do be who you want to be When I’m in your arms I’m strong There’s nowhere I’d rather be We shine for liberty, life and the pursuit of pleasure Gone and blown it all, how can you say “It doesn’t matter much to me?” A dumb mistake too much to pay A shattered heart in love’s debris Gone and blown it all and then you say “This isn’t happening to me” A dumb mistake too much to pay A shattered heart in love’s debris And how the days have flown too few and fast They said it wasn’t meant to last A dumb mistake too much to pay A shattered heart in love’s debris
