[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause you let go
And now I'm holdin' on
I guess you don't know what you got
Until it's gone
[Chorus]
Sometimes you gotta lose somebody
Just to find out you really love someone
Oh-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-oh, yeah
Sometimes you gotta lose somebody
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
'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
[Chorus]
Sometimes you gotta lose somebody
Just to find out you really love someone
Oh-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-oh, yeah
Sometimes you gotta lose somebody
[Post-Chorus]
Sometimes you gotta lose somebody, yeah
Sometimes you gotta lose somebody, yeah
Sometimes you gotta lose somebody, yeah
Sometimes you gotta lose somebody, yeah
[Chorus]
Sometimes you gotta lose somebody
Just to find out you really love someone
Oh-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-oh, yeah
Sometimes you gotta lose somebody
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh
You gotta lose some
You gotta lose somebody
