I once held her in my arms
She said she would always stay
But I was cruel
And 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 every 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
'Cause one thing for certain
You will surely be hurtin'
If you throw it all away
If you throw it all away
