She said it was over the rolled off my shoulder I told her it's nothing at all Said I wouldn't miss her I took all the pictures out of the frames on the wall You don't know what you got, got til it's gone gone Takes losing it to know, know what you want want Every tick of the clock, you wish it could stop You tell yourself you're ok, but you lie lie Like you're not thinking about her all the time time But youre still hanging on You don't know what you got got til it's long gone Gone gone I rolled down a backroad and rolled down the window Turning the radio on Smile slides off your face, and the sun turns to gray When it starts playing that old song You don't know what you got, got til it's gone gone Takes losing it to know, know what you want want Every tick of the clock, you wish it could stop You tell yourself you're ok, but you lie lie Like you're not thinking about her all the time time But youre still hanging on You don't know what you got got til it's long gone Gone gone You don't know what you got, got til it's gone gone Used to be so right right now it's all wrong You're missing her now cause she ain't around You don't know what you got got til it's gone gone Takes losing it to know, know what you want want Every tick of the clock, you wish it could stop You tell yourself you're ok, but you lie lie Like you're not thinking about her all the damn time But youre still hanging on You don't know what you got got til it's long gone Gone gone
