I hear your new love sends you
Pretty something different each day
And he never forget to call
You whenever he's away
He sends you flowers and candy
Tied in ribbons of blue
Why didn't I think of that before I lost you
He takes you dancing out with the crowd
And when you walk beside him
He looks so proud
He does thoughtful little things
That I didn't do
Why didn't I think of that before I lost you
But I was so concerned with
Other things I couldn't see
How lonely you were for the love
You never got from me
I should have told you every day
I was thankful for you
Why didn't I think of that before I lost you
Why didn't I think of that before I lost you
