Take It For Granted

There’s that old store my regular spot
Sometimes I go there other times not
It’s been there so long that’s just the
Way that it is
I don’t want to think that it’ll
Go out of biz’
I don’t want to go there ‘cause
It may be the last time
I just want it to be there
If i happen to pass by
That’s what makes it good
That’s what makes it okay
When I don’t have to work or
Stress to just make it stay
I don’t want it to be there
Because I fought or demanded
I just want to love it
And take it for granted

I never felt charming and
It always felt unfair
That we met at a concert
Or a party or somewhere
Soon I don’t know whose house is
Where my gray hooded shirt is
‘Cause I guess that we’re dating
Or whatever the word is
And I’m glad when we are
Eating and discussing our plans
I know we’ll already be hanging
Out next weekend in advance
That’s what makes relax
That's what makes it a life
When you don’t have to worry
About these things every night
It’s not a very good fire if
It stays when you fanned it
What’s the point if we can’t just
Take each other for granted

I’ve got this apartment that
Could turn into ash
I’ve got backups and copies that
Can all burn and crash
I’ve got this old car but it
Could fly off the road
I’ve got these two eyeballs but
They both might explode
I’ve got all my limbs but
Will I have them forever
I’ve got fingers here that any
Random doorhenge could sever
But the building that’s standing shuns the
Prints it stood up with
And the family that’s still living are
The worst to put up with
Cuz you can put down a
Blanket anywhere on this planet
But you'll be become very anxious unless
You take it for granted
The world is so fragile
Every moments enchanted
But it’s all a sad battle if
I can’t take it for granted
I just want to love it
And take it for granted
