<br>

[JOE]<br>

A man doesn't know what he has until he loses it,<br>

When a man has the love of a woman he abuses it,<br>

I didn't know what I had when I had my old love,<br>

I didn't know what I had 'till I said, "Goodbye, old love!"<br>

Yes, a man doesn't know what he has 'til it is no longer around<br>

But the happy thought is<br>

Whatever it is he's lost, may some day once again be found!<br>

<br>

[MEG]<br>

I know what you mean Joe,<br>

Only too well<br>

For I am lonely just like you<br>

Lonley for my Joe, My sweet Joe<br>

How really sweet I never knew<br>

I really never knew<br>

<br>

A woman doesn't know what she has until she loses it,<br>

When a woman has the love of a man she abuses it,<br>

I didn't know what I had when I had my old love,<br>

<br>

[JOE]<br>

I didn't know what I had 'till I said, "Goodbye old love!"<br>

Yes, a man doesn't know what he has 'til it is no longer around<br>

<br>

[BOTH]<br>

But the happy thought is<br>

Whatever it is he's/she's lost, may some day once again be found!<br>
