So you think there's a flicker in your flame
But your regiment of loving her still the same
Forgotten holidays, forsaken little things
It means so much to her, but you let it slip away
Like a gamblers game
You're risking every thing
And even though the stakes are high
You're playing with her heart
Before your card gets fold
And before you roll the dice
Just realize how much it's gonna cost, ah
If you lose her (you lose her)
There'll be a hole in your soul
There'll be no grave (no grave)
Deep enough to bury the pain (don't be a fool)
If you lose her (you lose her)
You may not see it now
But when she's gone, you'll know how much she's worth

Alone, ooh
♪
She's always last on your list
She's starving for affection
But you turn a blind eye
'Cause you hear her say, "Honey it's okay"
Something deep down says, "Give her more attention"
But instead of telling the truth, you prefer the masquerade
Like a gamblers game
You're risking every thing
And even though the stakes are high
You're playing with her heart
And now she slowly starts to slip away
You realize how much it's gonna cost
If you lose her (you lose her)
There'll be a hole in your soul
There'd be no grave (no grave)
Deep enough to bury the pain (don't be a fool)
If you lose her (you lose her)
You may not see it now
But when she's gone, you'll know how much she's worth
(If you lose her)
If I were you, I just wouldn't take that chance
'Cause when the tides of change roll in
She'll be gone like a footprint in the sand
If you lose her (if you lose her)
Hole in your soul
There'll be no grave (no grave)
Deep enough to bury the pain (don't be a fool)
If you lose her (if you lose her)
You may not see it now
But when she's gone you'll know how much she's worth
If you lose her (if you lose her)
Hole in your soul
If you lose her (no grave)
Don't be a fool
If you lose her (if you lose her)
You may not see it now
But when she's gone, you'll know how much she's worth
