TOOK FOR GRANTED

What's the meaning of the season
Has it all been just a lie
Are we just committing treason
Unto our God until the day we die

Has there been another answer
That we so often overlook
Hardly noticing that right before our eyes
Was the very thing we took
we took for granted

The water, sun, the air, the forest
Animals and birds we'll never see
Like so many who have come before us
Always blowing caution to the wind

Staring at a full moon in December
The air is chilled, the rain is coming down
Wave the white flag of surrender
Cause everything we ever found
we took for granted

If I was a penny, laying on the ground
Would you pick me up and pocket me
Is there still enough shine
in these tired old eyes of mine
To keep you loving me
To keep you loving me
