You Don't Miss Your Water (Til Your Well Runs Dry)

—William Bell

In the beginning you really loved me
I was too blind, I couldn't see
But now you've left me, oh how I cry
You don't miss your water 'til your well runs dry

I was a playboy, I could not be true
I couldn't believe that I really loved you
But when you left me, oh how I cried
You don't miss your water 'til your well runs dry

I sit and wonder, how can this be?
I never thought you'd ever leave me
But now you've left me, oh how I cry
You don't miss your water 'til your well runs dry

You don't miss your water, 'til your well runs dry

Original William Bell lyrics:

In the beginning, you really loved me
I was too blind, I could not see, now
But now that you've left me
Oh, how I cried, I keep crying
You don't miss your water till your well run dry

I kept you crying, sad and blue, oh my
I was a playboy, I just wouldn't be true
But now that you left me
Good Lord, how I cried, I keep crying, I keep crying
Ooh, I've missed my water
No, I never missed my water 'till my well run dry

I sit here and wonder
How in the world this could be, oh my
I never thought, oh, I never thought you'd ever leave me
But now that you've left me
Good Lord, good Lord, how I cried
You don't miss your water
You don't miss your water till your well run dry
