Don't know what you've got, not till you lose it
You had my love but you only abused it
I've had enough of all your excuses and lies
You can look but don't you touch
You played around girl, much too much
You had it all but you gave it up
It's too late

What you see is what you don't get
You had your chance and then you blew it
I was the one you never knew it
Now it's time to forget
What you see is what you can't have
You're missing out and that is too bad
I was the one who had the last laugh
And all you've got is regret

I made up my mind, showed your true colours
One of a kind? no you're just like the others
I'm saying goodbye to all your excuses and lies
And now there's nothing left to say
So why are you standing in my way?
And don't go begging me to stay, it's too late

What you see is what you don't get
You had your chance and then you blew it
I was the one you never knew it
Now it's time to forget
What you see is what you can't have
You're missing out and that is too bad
I was the one who had the last laugh
And all you've got is regret

What you see is what you don't get
Are you a fool or have you got it yet?
You had it all and then you threw it all away
