I once held her, in my arms,
She said she would, always stay.
But I was cruel,
I treated her like a fool,
I threw it all away.

Once I had mountains, in the palm of my hand,
And rivers that ran through ev'ry day.
But I must have been mad,
I never knew what I had,
Until I threw it all away.

Love is all there is, it makes the world go 'round,
Love and only love, it can't be denied.
No matter what you think about it
You just won't be able to do without it.
Take a tip from one who's tried.

So if you find someone, that gives you all of her love,
Take it to your heart don't, let it stray,
For one thing for certain
You will surely be a-hurtin',
If you throw it all away,
If you throw it all away.
