I once held him in my arms
|
And he said he'd always stay
|
But I was cruel, I treated him like a fool
|
And I threw it all away
|
|
I once had mountains in the palm of my hand
|
Rivers that ran through every day
|
But I must have been mad, never knew what I had
|
'Til I threw it all away
|
|
Love is all it is, it makes the world go round
|
Love and only love, it can't be denied
|
No matter what you think about it
|
You won't be able to do without it
|
Take a tip from one who's tried
|
|
So if you find someone who gives you all his love
|
Take it to your heart, don't let it stray
|
One thing is certain, you'll surely be hurting
|
If you throw it all away
|
If you throw it all away
|
|
Love is all it is, it makes the world go round
|
Love and only love can't be denied
|
And no matter what you think about it
|
You won't be able to do without it
|
Take a tip from one who's tried
|
|
So if you find someone to give you all of his love
|
Take it to your heart, don't let it stray
|
One thing is certain, you'll surely be hurting
|
If you throw it all away
|
If you throw it all away, yeah
|
