I had a boy walk into my life He told me, "Girl, wanna be my wife?" And I replied, "Let's give it a try" I'll be your woman and you be my man Exchanging everything between our hands But when night was day, he ran away And I don't know if you'll ever see Just what you lost when you lost me I think of all the things you said we'd do Like drive across the land of brown and blue But on that day, you gave it away And I don't know if you'll ever see Just what you lost when you lost me And I don't wanna write you any more songs 'cause life is short and it's been way too long With you and me, indefinitely And I don't know if you'll ever see Just what you lost when you lost me
