Threw It Away Lyrics

I'm not a pauper or a millionaire
Doin' all my living on a song and a prayer. I played to win and took the lion's share - so sweet. Memories of friends upon my wall
When I met you I thought that I had it all
Too young to understand the mighty fall - so easy. Still I 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. [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/threw-it-away-lyrics-joe-cocker.html ] Conversation in a crowded room
I hear the music but I'm not out of tune. You never learn until your chance is had - and gone. .rew it away just when I had it I threw it away . . . Oh but I th Memories of friends upon my wall . Tellin' you I threw it away when I had it I threw it away . .. That precious feeling oh no.
