Lyrics Don't Let a Good Thing Go - Billy Miller, Paul Kelly

Don't Let a Good Thing Go

If you find a love that’s strong and true
You don’t want to lose it
With tender kindness surrounding you
Don’t refuse it
You might think to look around
You don’t want to be tied down
There’s just one thing you should know
Don’t let a good thing go
Once I held all riches in my hands?
But I held them cheap
I wandered through a milk and honey land
But I wandered asleep
I woke up on stony ground
All I knew in pieces around
Now there’s just one thing that I know
Don’t let a good thing go
Soon you’ll be standing out in the pouring rain
With no-one else to blame
You’ll understand then there’s no way home again
And no place to hide your shame
You might think to look around
You don’t want to be tied down
You’ll wake up on stony ground
All you know in pieces around
There’s just one thing you should know
Don’t let a good thing go
Soon you’ll be standing out in the pouring rain
Soon you’ll be standing out in the pouring rain
You’ll understand then there’s no way home again
