All the moves i was afraid to make
all the chances that i didnand't take
oh i cried out loud when they were gone
There was so much i should have said
for some reason i chose silence instead
and i cried out loud when you were gone
I was movinand' in the wrong direction
now iand'm tryinand' to get away from affection
all the years i was too blind to see
that a friend was standinand' next to me
Why do people always start to appreciate
when itand's gone, when itand's done, when itand's too late
people always start to appreciate
when itand's gone when itand's too late
when itand's gone when itand's too late
when itand's gone when itand's too late
Life can be much more than it seems
try to seize your day and live your dreams
and'cause you will cry out loud
when they are gone
When do we stop to take it all for granted
itand's always gone before we understand it
we donand't take care of us until weand're torn
we donand't take care of friends until theyand're gone
Why do people always start to appreciate
when itand's gone, when itand's done, when itand's too late
people always start to appreciate
when itand's gone when itand's too late
when itand's gone then itand's too late
Try to realize what is fake what is true
try to make up your mind whoand's important to you
then youand'll never know the feelinand' of sorrow
for all that is gone
Why do people always start to appreciate
when itand's gone, when itand's done, when itand's too late
people always start to appreciate
when itand's gone when itand's too late
when itand's gone then itand's too late
Why do people always start to appreciate
when itand's gone, when itand's done, when itand's too late
people always start to appreciate
when itand's gone then itand's too late
