[Intro]
Ah-ooh
Oh, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh, oh

[Verse 1]
Last night I saw you as I stood in the rain
Brought me right back to that feeling again
I tried to hide the tears in my eyes
But you didn't see as you walked on by
Tried to forget you, I tried to move on
But the deeper I'm feeling, the harder I fall
Nothing else matters at all
Let me tell you

[Chorus]
You don't know what love is till you lose it
You don't know what you've got till it slips away
Leaves you alone in the dark
And takes you and tears you apart
You don't know what love is till it breaks your heart
Till it breaks your heart

[Verse 2]
Sometimes I think back when our love was new
The crazy things that we used to do
How could love that's so right turn to something so wrong?
Still can't believe that you're really gone
Wish I could stop all these thoughts in my head
Wish I could take back the words that I said
It's a lesson I'll never forget
Let me tell you

[Chorus]
You don't know what love is till you lose it
You don't know what you've got till it slips away
Leaves you alone in the dark
And takes you and tears you apart
You don't know what love is till it breaks your heart
Ooh yeah

[Bridge]
Love has no season, no beginning nor end
No rhyme or reason, to the way the story ends
No way of knowing how a broken heart mends
Still we keep fallin', time and time again

[Chorus]
You don't know what love is till you lose it (You don't know)
You don't know what you've got till it slips away (Till it slips away)
Leaves you alone in the dark (Oh)
And takes you and tears you apart
You don't know what love is till it breaks your heart
Till it breaks your heart, ah-ooh
Till it breaks your heart
