Threw It Away

I'm not a pauper or a millionaire



Doin' all my living on a song and a prayer.

I played to win and took the lion's share - so sweet.

That precious feeling

I threw it away - just when I really cared.

Conversation in a crowded room



I hear the music but I'm not out of tune.

You never learn until your chance is had - and gone.
