You never know what something is worth until "IT's" gone.
I never valued "IT" much.
Never admitted I had "IT".
I was ashamed of "IT", I think.

Today "IT" was taken away from me,
or maybe I just threw "IT" away,
I'm not sure.

I wish I had given "IT" to someone special to me,
instead of someone I didn't know.

I wish he would have asked to take "IT".

I wish I would have stopped him.

Now I cry 'cause "IT's" gone for good.

And I wish I had "IT" back.
