She didn't know what she had
She let a good thing go bad
Love ain't a gift you take for granted
You gave her a band of gold,
And more than a heart can hold,
And, honey, I don't understand it

How could she be so blind?
How could she have it all and set it free
Your heart's the keepin' kind
If you were mine to love,
I wouldn't give you up
Oh, darlin', how could she?

I'd always be there for you
She really didn't know you
She never took the time to listen
I could be more than just a friend
You can learn to love again
Find out what you been missin'

How could she be so blind?
How could she have it all and set it free
Your heart's the keepin' kind
If you were mine to love,
I wouldn't give you up
Oh, darlin', how could she?

Instrumental break

How could she be so blind?
How could she have it all and set it free
Your heart's the keepin' kind
If you were mine to love,
I wouldn't give you up
Oh, darlin', how could she?

Oh, darlin', how could she?
