I worry all day and I can't go to sleep at night

Thinking about baby and wondering who's holding her tight tonight

People say I've been a fool too long, too long

All my friends still ask me why I keep hanging on and on



Chorus:

And I say

You'll never know until it happens to you

You'll never know all that I'm going through

Love ain't something that flies away

Somebody goes but the feeling stays

And you'll never know until it happens to you



Saturday's rollin' and everybody's rockin' but me

I should go to town but I don't want no company, no, no, no

Friends say I should be out having fun with someone

I know it's true but if they only knew it's easier said than done

Oh yeah



Repeat chorus



Bridge

Friends say I've been a fool too long, much too long

They just don't understand why I sit at home all alone by the phone



And I say

You'll never know until it happens to you

You'll never know all that I'm going through

You'll never know, oh no

You'll never know, whoa

You'll never know until it happens to you
