I once held her in my arms.
She said she would always stay.
But I was cruel, I treated her like a fool.
I threw it all away.
Once I had mountains in the palm of my hand
And rivers that ran through every day.
I musta been mad, I never knew what I had
Until I threw it all away.
Love is all there is, it makes the world go 'round.
Love and only love – it can't be denied.
No matter what you think about it, you just 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 of her love,
Take it to your heart, don't let it stray
For one thing for certain, you will surely be a-hurting
If you throw it all away.
