You'll never know how much you'll miss
The one that you love till she's gone you'll never know
You'll never know how much you'll be
Left all alone till she's gone you'll never know

You'll wonder why you're gonna stop the pain
Or how you'll cry and want her back again
You'll wish a thousand times you haven't said me things
You'll wonder if the sorrow and regret will be in vain
You'll never know how much it hurts
To know you were wrong till she's gone you'll never know

[ banjo ]

You'll never know how much you'll miss
You'll wonder why you're gonna stop the pain
