Lyrics

[Verse 1] Long hours and a few dyin' flowers But you never seem to stick around How could you let somethin' so good Go to waste and bleed the colours out? [Pre-Chorus] You don't know what you got till it's gone Know when it's right till it's wrong In search of perfect when you had it with you all along You broke her heart down with ease Now I'm pickin' up every piece You must be so hard to please [Chorus] I wish I could say "Thank you for all the mistakes Thank you for all of the pain" I guess somebody else's loss is another's gain I'm sayin' thank you to the one who let her get away Away [Verse 2] She gave you love, but it wasn't enough You had your mind set out on other things Can't sleep at night, now you're payin' the price You let another come and take your place [Pre-Chorus] You don't know what you got till it's gone Know when it's right till it's wrong In search of perfect when you had it with you all along You broke her heart down with ease Now I'm pickin' up every piece You must be so hard to please [Chorus] I wish I could say "Thank you for all the mistakes Thank you for all of the pain" I guess somebody else's loss is another's gain I'm sayin' thank you to the one who let her get away Away [Bridge] Thank you to the one who caused her heart to break I'm thankin' you for givin' me a soul to save Thank you to the one who let her get away [Chorus] You know, I wish I could say "Thank you for all the mistakes Thank you for all of the pain" I guess somebody else's loss is another's Oh, I wish I could say "Thank you for all the mistakes Thank you for all of the pain" I guess somebody else's loss is another's gain I'm sayin' thank you to the one who let her get away Away
