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
