Let Your Loss Be Your Lesson

Once I had myself a good woman

But I just didn't treat her right

I was always leavin'

Livin' a party life

True love was waiting for me

I was much too blind to see

'Til she told me she would leave me

I said that's all right with me

Oh, now she's gone

Realized I lost the best thing there is

And my pride keeps tellin' me

Let your loss be your lesson

Heaven knows I miss her lovin'

Heaven knows how much I cried

Just to think that she had left me

And I know the reason why

I could tell she had been cryin'

It didn't seem to bother me

'Cause I know there's no one blinder

Than a fool who just couldn't see

Oh, now she's gone

I realized I lost the best thing there is

And my pride keeps tellin' me

Let your loss be your lesson

Let your loss be your lesson
