Granted
Do you remember that time
When things were exactly how I wanted
But maybe I loved you a bit too much
So you started taking me for granted.

I love your mom
And I do believe she loves me too
But the sadness in her eyes when you yell at me
Shows she doesn't want you to take me for granted.

Do you remember that class
I held your hand tight and kissed it
But then you pulled away
Was it then, that you started taking me for granted?

I fail to understand, no matter how much I try
Did I bore you with my love, because I never meant it
But you left me still, in the end
Oh, how you took me for granted.

I put my hat on, to bid you adieu
Forever, there's no looking back, undaunted
I saw you, crying on your knees
But rest assured, my friend, your wish has finally been granted.
