You don't know a good thing
When you see it, when it's right before you
You don't know a good thing
When you have it, so you'll lose it
I give all my time to you
Am I a fool? Who needs this?
But if I was down on you, what would you do?
If I don't play your games, so
You don't know a good thing
When you see it, when it's right before you
You don't know a good thing
When you have it, so you'll lose it
What if I found someone else
Who needed me and left you
I've been thinking about myself
And no one else
All I'm trying to say is
You don't know a good thing
When you see it, when it's right before you
You don't know a good thing
When you have it, so you'll lose it
You don't know a good thing when you see it
Right before you
That's why you lose it
You don't know a good thing when you see it
Right before you
That's why you lose it
So I leave a choice to you
What will you do
Decide now
I just can take anyone and ask us more
Better make up your mind
'Cause you don't know a good thing
When you see it, when it's right before you
You don't know a good thing
When you have it, so you'll lose it
You don't know a good thing when you see it
Right before you
That's why you lose it
You don't know a good thing when you see it
Right before you; that's why you lose it
