Every second
I’ve taken for granted
It’s because I'm not
With you.

Every minute
I’ve taken for granted
It’s because I didn’t
See you.

Every hour
I’ve taken for granted
It’s because I haven’t
Talked to you.

Every day
I’ve taken for granted
It’s because I haven’t
Heard you.

Every week
I’ve taken for granted
It’s because I wished
For you.

Every month
I’ve taken for granted
It’s because I lost
Hope for you.

Every year
I’ve taken for granted
It’s because I didn’t
Know you.
