[Never miss a good thing 'til it's gone

I never meant to hurt you girl I was wrong
I always knew that one day you'd move on with your life
But I guess in the back of my mind
I thought you would come home one more time
I heard it through the grapevine you got a man
They say he treats you good and he makes you laugh
I'm happy for you baby and I ain't mad at you
May all your kids do good in school
And may all the dreams you have come true

CHORUS:
I'll always love you
I'll always care
And girl you gotta know that
I'll always love you
And no matter where you are
Know that my love is never far

A happy woman's worth her weight in gold
Loneliness is good for the soul
Expensive places, faces come and go
But you only find your soul mate once
And if you miss your chance you'll never find it again
I can't complain I did this to myself
You needed me and I wasn't there to help
It breaks my heart to see you lovin' someone else
I would give anything I own
If I could just have my baby home

CHORUS:
I'll always love you
I'll always care
And girl you gotta know that
I'll always love you
And no matter where you are
Know that my love is never far]
