So here's the story of my love, it-
Never fails to keep me up at night
I wonder, while you slumber
Why you never slipped away?

And I can see it in your eyes, you-
Were the apple of mine, but-
Now I miss it every night

[Chorus]
'Cause I threw my love away
Threw my love away
'Cause I threw my love away
Threw my love, away

Tale, it spins and so it goes
Love will sink you like a stone
And when you find your Dixie cup
I hope it's filling up and spillin' over
And over, and over
'Til the next one down the line

I've been thinking of, I've been feeling soft
Only half involved, only half a heart

I've been dreaming long for another start
Thought you'd understand when I fell apart
Are you saying
You are the one?
I don't even, like me that much
That much

[Chorus]
'Cause I threw my love away
Threw my love away
'Cause I threw my love away
Threw my love, away
