Can't Take Love For Granted

Lyrics

When I spoke what was on my mind
 I wasn't thinking of your heart
 I wasn't thinking when I said those things
 That landed us so far apart
 Now my world is ending
 With a chance remark
 You can't take love for granted
 And you look at me with your wounded eyes
 And I look back with fear
 There used to be such faith between us
 Now it's just not here
 And the door was slammed hours ago
 But it's still ringing in my ears
 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
 And looks that can kill
 One day you're in heaven darling
 The next you feel like hell
 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 you can't take love for granted
 No
 You can't take love for granted,no
 You can't take love
