Hey, you realize
What you got and done wrong
In a stranger's bed
In the early morning light
If you got the chance
You'd do it all over again
But you never realized what you lost until it's gone
A word to the wise
You better paint mine
There are days when the journey's rough
And you wanna cut loose
In a changing world it's an easy thing to do
The path of love, if it did run straight or smooth
You never realized what you lost until it's gone
There were times when I think I made an instant fire
And our love was a tinderbox
When our love was a gun and a battle, baby
It was worth it all when we made it up
There was a time when I was a player
Every night I got (...)
But those days are good and gone now
Don't wanna lose you, babe
A word to the wise
You better think twice
You better paint mine
I don't wanna lose you, baby
I don't wanna let you go
