Lyrics
I was in my prime
A lucky dog was I
Everything was going my way
The apple of many's eye
I took my chances, and I won
I gambled and stayed ahead
I never once looked back or had my fortune read
Now I think about you daily
But it only makes me sad
Things that got away
I treated you real bad
Now each morning when I wake up
It's you that's on my mind
You never can get over
Losing those you did unkind
I think about you daily
Time is like a hammer
It comes slow, then comes fast
And things that are too delicate
Are never gonna last
The time you took from me
I never saw it enter
Too distracted by a pretty face
I lost you and my center
Think about you daily
But it only makes me sad
Things that got away
I treated you real bad
Now each morning when I wake up
It's you that's on my mind
You never can get over
Losing those you did unkind
I think about you daily
So let it go and move on down
That's my advice to me
But I never could take good advice
It was ne'er my cup of tea
I'll have to live with knowing
You never knew how much
I saw you like a rock, I couldn't move or touch
Now I think about you daily
But it only makes me sad
Things that got away
I treated you real bad
Now each morning when I wake up
It's you that's on my mind
You never can get over
Losing those you did unkind
I think about you
I think about you daily
