Until It Happens To You

(Jeff Cook - Teddy Gentry - Randall Rogers)



I worry all day and I can't go to sleep at night

Thinking about baby and wondering

Who's holding her tight, tonight

People say I've been a fool too long, too long

All my friends still ask me why I keep hanging on and on.



And I say

You'll never know until it happens to you

You'll never know all that I'm going through

Love ain't something that flies away

Somebody goes but the feeling stays

And you'll never know until it happens to you.



Saturday's rollin' and everybody's rockin' but me

I should go to town but

I don't want no company, no, no, no

Friends say I should be out having fun with someone

I know it's true but if they only knew

It's easier said than done.

Oh yeah.



And I say

You'll never know until it happens to you

You'll never know all that I'm going through

Love ain't something that flies away

Somebody goes but the feeling stays

And you'll never know until it happens to you.



Friends say I've been a fool too long, much too long

They just don't understand

Why I sit at home all alone by the phone.



And I say

You'll never know until it happens to you.

You'll never know all that I'm going through.

You'll never know, oh no.

You'll never know, whoa.

You'll never know until it happens to you...
