When i spoke what was on my mind |
|
I wasn't thinking of your heart |
|
I wasn't thinking bout the things i said |
|
That landed us so far apart |
|
And now my world is ending baby |
|
With a chance remark |
|
No, you can't take love for granted |
|
You look at me with your wounded eyes |
|
And i look back with fear |
|
There used to be such faith between us, now, darlin' |
|
Now it's just not here |
|
And the door was slammed hours ago |
|
But it's still ringing in my ears |
|
No, you can't take love for granted |
|
It was a funny way to show i love you |
|
A funny way to care |
|
It's a funny thing to be without you |
|
As empty as your stare |
|
You can't take love for granted |
|
It's got its own free will |
|
It's got a mind of its own when it wants one, baby |
|
And looks that can kill |
|
One day you're in heaven darling |
|
The next you feel like hell |
|
No, you can't take love for granted |
|
You can speak what's on your mind |
|
If you've got a gambler's heart |
|
You can be the truth incarnate |
|
You can shoot straight in the dark |
|
You can pull the moon down baby |
|
With a lasso made of stars |
|
But no, you can't take love for granted |
|
No, you can't take love for granted no |
|
Baby, don't take love for granted |
