You Never Know

You may think it's over, but I don't know

Something deep inside of me just won't let go

Is it love that draws me near or is it fear

Of losing all those beautiful years

You'll never know what you got

Until you finally lose the lot

You'll never appreciate

Until it's taken all away from you

You'll never know what you got

Until you finally lose the lot

You'll never appreciate

Until it's too late

Voices on the outside may have it all worked out

They calculate it, adjudicate it, leave no doubt

But their bitter words fall on frightened ears

And the man on the inside sheds another silent tear

You'll never know what you got

Until you finally lose the lot

You'll never appreciate

Until it's taken all away from you

You'll never know what you got

Until you finally lose the lot

You'll never appreciate

Until it's too late

You'll never know what you got

Until you finally lose the lot

You'll never appreciate

Until it's taken all away from you

You'll never know what you got

Until you finally lose the lot

You'll never appreciate

Until it's too late

(It's too late)

Until it's too late
