[Verse 1]
I was caught so unaware
When you made other plans
Promises you swore to keep
Were more than you could stand

[Hook]
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone

[Verse 2]
I can't stand to hear your name
You were so unkind
Though you think you made out well
One day, you will find

[Hook]
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone

[Bridge]
Shame on you
I gave you love
I gave you love so true
But you ran away
You just don't know what to do
Yeah, yeah
[Hook]
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone

You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got
You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone
