Lyrics
So many times, I let moments slip by
Because I knew there would be more right around the corner
So many times, you walked right by my side, slipped your hand in mine
And I let go so easily
But if I only knew, it just takes gratitude
To see you have more than you need
Just to love is to succeed
It was another missed opportunity to show gratitude
So many days, got lost inside my head
Walked past the living dead lying on the sidewalk
So many days, thought I was on my way
Didn't even stop to pray, cuz I had all the answers
But if I only knew, it just takes gratitude
To see you have more than you need
Just to love is to succeed
It was another missed opportunity to show gratitude
How many times will you rescue me
How many more will I fail
Deep inside I got this restless need
To prove there's something I believe
Well I finally learned, once everything had burned
Each heart is filled with grace, and somehow mine's not broken
And I finally found that life keeps love around
If you're thankful for each day and every lesson granted
If I only knew just what I had to lose
Then maybe I'd have seen, I was losing me in me
Just another missed opportunity to show gratitude
But if I only knew, that it just takes gratitude
To see you have more than you need
Just to love is to succeed
It was another missed opportunity to show gratitude
