Throwing Away A Precious Jewel lyrics - Brennen Leigh

[Verse 1]
I can't say it's nice to meet you
Or that I ever wanted to
But it was bound to happen in the end
Now that we're face to face
All that I can say
Is I'm sorry for you, my friend

[Chorus]
But you took him for granted You didn't understand him
I don't think you can 'cause you're a fool
You just kept on goin'
Without even knowin'
You were throwin' away a precious jewel

[Verse 2]
He was yours to hold
With a heart as pure as gold
Full of love you could've seen if you weren't blind
And for the life of me
Lord knows I just can't see
Why he stayed with you all that time

[Chorus]
You took him for granted
You didn't try to understand him
You don't know what you were missin', but I do
And now I get to hold him
You didn't even know it
You were throwin' away a precious jewel

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
You took him for granted
You didn't try to understand him
You don't know what you were missin', but I do
And now I get to hold him
You didn't even know it
You were throwin' away a precious jewel
You were throwin' away a precious jewel
