Boz Scaggs - Take It For Granted lyrics

Take it for granted You're making a mistake Take it for what it is But take it for Gods sake Take it from me Lonely as can be I'd love to But I never dared to If only I could make you see Once a man stood by a wall And watched his love across the beach And though her loveliness could warm his heart Her lips he could not reach And nothing would he do Nothing would he say He just keeps it all inside himself And saves it for another day Then he heard a song Sweetly over the wall Singing its better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all Take it for granted Oh don't make that mistake Take it for what it is But take it for Gods sake mmm Take it from me Lonely as can be I'd love to but I never dared to But if only I..
