Lyrics

[Verse 1] She wanted me to tell you to leave She wanted me to let you know That you just don't understand her She just needs some time to breathe She could have told you better herself 'Cus she's in love with somebody else I don't know why I had to be the messenger boy The messenger boy I guess that somebody was me [Chorus] Don't know what you got till it's gone Don't know what you did so wrong Don't know what you got till it's gone Don't know why you did it so wrong [Verse 2] She wanted me to tell her my fears She wanted me to let it all go I don't know why I said it, I just can't trust anyone I knew she was true, I knew she was true [Bridge 1] I never liked the sound of being alone much Just one touch to help with the coldness Persuasion was a trait the she held in her hand When she took mine, and I understood then [Chorus] Don't know what you got till it's gone Don't know what you did so wrong Don't know what you got till it's gone Don't know why you did it so wrong [Bridge 2] And I did you wrong You said I was just like him But that's where you're wrong He never wrote you no love song It seemed like no sooner than I got my feet on the ground The words slipped away, say And baby, I hear you Know what you're saying and I feel it too You've got something I ain't never had This kind of love I can sing about Yeah, and you're hearing me now Whoa, hear me now
