I once held him in my arms

He said he would always stay

But I was cruel

I treated him like a fool

Don't you know I threw it all away



Once I had mountains

In the palm of my hand

And rivers that ran through everyday

I must have been mad

I never knew what I had

Until I threw it all away

Until I threw it all away



Love is all there is

It makes the world go around

Love and only love

It can't be deny

No matter what you think about it

You can't do without it

Take a tip from one who's tried



So if you find someone

Gives you all his love

Take it to your heart

Don't let it stray

Ah one thing's for certain

You're surely gonna be hurtin'

If you throw it all away

If you throw it all away
