It's a classic me mistake
Someone gives me love, and I throw it all away
Tell me, have I gone insane?
Talkin' to myself, but I don't know what to say
'Cause you let go

And now I'm holdin' on

I guess you don't know what you got

Until it's gone



Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody

Just to find out you really love someone

Oh, and I do, and I do, and I do, yeah

Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody

Just to find out you really love someone

Oh, yeah

Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody



So don't tell me it's too late

Hearts are made to bend

Baby, please don't let me break, yeah

I knew I should've stayed

'Cause now, you're movin' on

And I don't know what to say



'Cause you let go (Yeah, you let go)

And now I'm holdin' on (I'm holdin' on)

I guess you don't know what you got

Until it's gone



Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody

Just to find out you really love someone

Oh, and I do, and I do, and I do, yeah

Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody (Somebody)

Just to find out you really love someone

Oh, yeah

Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody

Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody, yeah

Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah

Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody, yeah

Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah

Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody, yeah



Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody

Just to find out you really love someone

Oh, and I do, and I do, and I do, yeah

Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody (Somebody)

Just to find out you really love someone

Oh, yeah

Sometimes, you gotta lose somebody



Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah

Hey yeah, hey yeah, hey yeah
