Can't Take Love for Granted
Cherishing Hearts: Unveiling the Fragility of Love
Lyrics
When I spoke what was on my mind
Expressing regret for speaking without considering consequences.
I wasn't thinking of your heart
Acknowledging unawareness of the impact on the partner's emotions.
I wasn't thinking bout the things I said
Admitting lack of consideration for the spoken words.
That landed us so far apart
Recognizing the distance caused by the thoughtless words.
And now my world is ending baby
Describing a sense of impending doom after a careless comment.
With a chance remark
Highlighting the significance of a seemingly innocuous remark.
No, you can't take love for granted
Stressing the lesson that love cannot be assumed or taken lightly.
You look at me with your wounded eyes
Noticing the hurt in the partner's eyes.
And I look back with fear
Expressing fear in response to the changed dynamics of the relationship.
There used to be such faith between us, now, darlin'
Reflecting on the lost faith and intimacy between partners.
Now it's just not here
Emphasizing the absence of trust and connection.
And the door was slammed hours ago
Recalling a recent, emotionally charged confrontation.
But it's still ringing in my ears
Indicating the lasting impact of a recent argument.
No, you can't take love for granted
Reiterating the theme that love must not be taken for granted.
It was a funny way to show I love you
Acknowledging an unconventional expression of love.
A funny way to care
Describing an unusual way of demonstrating care.
It's a funny thing to be without you
Expressing the emptiness felt without the partner.
As empty as your stare
Comparing the partner's gaze to a vacant, emotionless stare.
You can't take love for granted
Asserting that love has its own autonomy.
It's got its own free will
Stating that love acts independently and cannot be controlled.
It's got a mind of its own when it wants one, baby
Attributing a self-directed nature and a potentially destructive power to love.
And looks that can kill
Highlighting the intensity and potential harm of love's gaze.
One day you're in heaven darling
Describing the unpredictable nature of love with highs and lows.
The next you feel like hell
Conveying the drastic emotional shifts experienced in love.
No, you can't take love for granted
Reiterating the warning against taking love for granted.
You can speak what's on your mind
Encouraging open communication, even with risks involved.
If you've got a gambler's heart
Suggesting that expressing thoughts requires a courageous heart.
You can be the truth incarnate
Emphasizing the importance of honesty and authenticity.
You can shoot straight in the dark
Encouraging straightforwardness, even in challenging situations.
You can pull the moon down baby
Using imagery to depict the power of love to achieve seemingly impossible feats.
With a lasso made of stars
Describing a romantic, celestial gesture with the moon and stars.
But no, you can't take love for granted
Repeating the caution against taking love for granted.
No, you can't take love for granted no
Reiterating the central message in a negative form.
Baby, don't take love for granted
Specifically addressing the partner, urging them not to underestimate love.
