Mary Chapin Carpenter - 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 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 k** 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 la**o 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
