[Verse 1]
It's a classic me mistake
Someone gives me love, and I throw it all away
Tell me, have I gone insane?
Talkin' to myself, but I don't know what to say

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause you let go
And now I'm holdin' on
I guess you don't know what you got
Until it's gone

[Chorus]
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody
Just to find out you really love someone
Oh, and I do, and I do, and I do, yeah
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody
Just to find out you really love someone
Oh, yeah
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody

[Verse 2]
So don't tell me it's too late
Hearts are made to bend
Baby, please don't let me break, yeah
I knew I should've stayed
'Cause now, you're movin' on
And I don't know what to say

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause you let go (Yeah, you let go)
And now I'm holdin' on (I'm holdin' on)
I guess you don't know what you got
Until it's gone

[Chorus]
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody
Just to find out you really love someone
Oh, and I do, and I do, and I do, yeah
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody (Somebody)
Just to find out you really love someone
Oh, yeah
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody

[Post-Chorus]
Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody, yeah
Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody, yeah
Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody, yeah
Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody, yeah

[Chorus]
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody
Just to find out you really love someone
Oh, and I do, and I do, and I do, yeah
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody (Somebody)
Just to find out you really love someone
Oh, yeah
Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody

[Outro]
Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah
Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah
Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah
Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah
Ooh, ooh
You gotta lose some
You gotta lose somebody
