lyrics

NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU”VE GOT UNTIL ITS GONE

Every day precious sand
Through the fingers of my hand
Trickles down like a flood
There were times that I wished
Oh my lips they had kissed
The sweetest waters of these rivers of romance
I played the fool danced around
As a rule I’m always hoping
They’ll be just one more chance
Never Living for the day and ah
tomorrow yeah they say
Never comes its like the morning of tomorrow

You never know what you’ve got until its gone
And after all when all is said and done
You never know what you’ve got
You may be happy with your lot
You’ll never know what you’ve got until its gone

But time slips away
precious now for today
Is just a moment only captured in your eyes
For the world it looked vast
Only the future and no past
And we would live as if we were born to be forever

You never know what you’ve got until its gone
And after all when all is said and done
You never know what you’ve got
You may be happy with your lot
You’ll never know what you’ve got until its gone

We are dust in the wind
And w are blown as we sing
Of all those summers in the winter of our song
We are here and we are gone
And yes its hard to carry on
When like a child we see the world through eyes much older
