George Strait - You Don't Know What You're Missing lyrics

Sitting at the bar I overheard a couple guys
One was complaining about his life and his
Wife and everyday things
Said, his kids were getting' big
And getting' hard to handle
The other guy was sipping whiskey
Wasn't saying a thing

The first guy kept talking for
What seemed like forever
Said, I never have money or
Time like I used to he went on and on
Till the second guy finally
Sat down his whiskey
Looked him straight in the eye and said
Lucky you

You don't know what it feels
Like living this lonely
You don't know what it sounds
Like when nobody's home
You've been talking and man
I've been doing some listening
You don't know what you're missing
Till it's gone

The second guy said
I used to have all your problems
But hindsight's 20 20 and a fool is blind
So, please excuse me if I
Have to end our conversation
And forgive me if I can't sympathize

You don't know what you're
Missing till it's gone
