Lyrics Til You Lose it All - Lucky Dube

We take a lot of things for granted
One day it'll all be taken away
That's when you will realize
How important it was
You never miss your water
'Til your well runs dry
Give thanks and praise all the time
The wolf is always by the door

You don't know what you've got
'Til you lose it all again
You don't know what you've got
'Til you lose it all again
You never miss your water
'Til your well runs dry
You never miss your water
'Til your well runs dry

He's a hero, now that he's dead
Oh, what a bull preacher-man talks about him
When he was alive
He didn't even know his name
When he was alive
He didn't get this love
You never miss your water
'Til your well runs dry

You don't know what you've got
'Til you lose it all again
You don't know what you've got
'Til you lose it all again
You never miss your water
'Til your well runs dry
You never miss your water
'Til your well runs dry

You don't know what you've got
'Til you lose it all again
You don't know what you've got
'Til you lose it all again
You never miss your water
'Til your well runs dry
You never miss your water
'Til your well runs dry

You don't know what you've got
'Til you lose it all again
You don't know what you've got
'Til you lose it all again
You never miss your water
'Til your well runs dry
You never miss your water
