I once held her
|
In my arms
|
She said she would always stay
|
But I was cruel
|
And I treated her like a fool
|
I threw it all away
|
Once I had mountains
|
In the palm of my hand
|
And rivers to drink through everyday
|
But I must have been mad
|
I never knew what I had
|
Until I threw it all away
|
|
Love is all there is
|
That makes the world go round
|
Love as only love
|
Can't be denied
|
|
Not matter what you think about it
|
Just won't be able to do without it
|
Take a tip from one who's tried
|
|
So when you find someone
|
Who gives you all of her love
|
Take it to your heart don't
|
Let is stray
|
Cause one thing for certain
|
You will surely be hurting
|
If you throw it all away
|
If you throw it all away
|
|
