A Day Away – Take Me For Granted

She’ll take a chance on this boy

Missiles launched and she’s deployed her plan to understand him now

And she don’t know where he’s been

But she’ll find a reason

To let a love pass her by again

And don’t say it didn’t mean a thing

After all those silly songs I’m singing

No, you’ve blown your thoughts to shore

It’s the moment we live for

Don’t let it slip out the back door

Don’t let life pass you by

And your heart’s saying “yeah, let’s go”

But your mind’s saying “oh no”

Don’t let love die tonight

Cause she’s not alright

She’s like a wine that’s fine with age

But she can’t find it in her heart to change the way she feels about me now

And like a star that’s far away

I took the fall and she’s to blame

My heart is tangled in her now

And don’t say it didn’t mean a thing

After all those silly songs I’m singing

No, you’ve blown your thoughts to shore

It’s the moment we live for

Don’t let it slip out the back door

Don’t let life pass you by

And your heart’s saying “yeah, let’s go”

But your mind’s saying “oh no”

Don’t let love die tonight

Cause she’s not alright

It’s the moment we live for

Don’t let it slip out the back door

Don’t let life pass you by

And your heart’s saying “yeah, let’s go”

But your mind’s saying “oh no”

Don’t let love die tonight

Cause she’s not alright
