Eddie Rabbitt - Threw It Away Lyrics

Eddie Rabbitt Lyrics

"Threw It Away"

I'm not a pauper or a millionaire
Done all my livin' on a song and a prayer
I played to win and took the lion's share
So sweetly...

Memories in frames upon my wall
When I met you, I thought that I had it all
Too young to understand the mighty fall so easy

Threw it away
Just when I had it, I threw it away
Just when I held it, I threw it away
That previous feeling
I threw it away just when I really cared

A conversation in a crowded room
I hear the music but I'm out of tune
You never learn until the chance you had is gone

Threw it away just when I had it
I it threw away just when I held it
I threw it away
That precious feeling
I threw it away just when I really cared

Just when I really cared

Memories in frames upon my wall
When I met you, I thought that I had it all
Too young to understand the mighty fall so easy

I thew it away just when I had it
I threw it away just when I held it
I threw it away
That previous feeling
I threw it away just when I really cared
Threw it away just when I had it
I threw it away just when I held it
I threw it away
That precious feeling
I threw it away just when I really cared
