Don't Take The Goodtimes For Granted

I met with an old friend last evening
And I mentioned concerns that I had
About things that unfurled and the ways of the world
And how sometimes it makes me feel sad
I said life can be so complicated
And I’m scared I might lose my way
When a friendly hand pressed on my shoulder
He smiled and I heard him say

Son, don’t take the good times for granted
For things keep on changing each day
Make time to be with the ones that you love
Let nothing stand in your way
We don’t know what waits round the corner
We never know what lies ahead
So, if just for a moment, forget all your troubles
And count all your blessings instead

I often dream of the future
And of all of the things I might do
Son, follow your heart
Cause if you never dream
Your dreams they can never come true
Should you choose a road that’s less travelled
Just know I’ll be there to the end
You’re not just a shoulder to lean on
I thank you for being my friend

Don’t take the good times for granted
For things keep on changing each day
Make time to be with the ones that you love
Let nothing stand in your way
We don’t know what waits round the corner
We never know what lies ahead
So just for a moment forget all your troubles
And count all your blessings instead

So, don’t take the good times for granted
For things keep on changing each day
Make time to be with the ones that you love
Let nothing stand in your way
We don’t know what waits round the corner
We never know what lies ahead
So just for a moment forget all your troubles
And count all your blessings instead

So just for a moment forget all your troubles
And count all your blessings instead
