You've gotta be extra careful with
The things that are close and dearest to you
You know the closer you get to something

The tougher it is to see it
Explain to me all my happiness
That you just experienced by my side

Or maybe you're so blessed in ways that
You can't even remember it all
That you are standing here with me

That you live and breathe and see and feel
They're all little miracles and wonder
Just by themselves.

You've gotta be extra careful with
The things that are close and dearest to you
You know the closer you get to something

The tougher it is to see it
You know the closer you get to something
The tougher it is to see it

And I'll never take it for granted
It's fine to say "Never give up"
Say "Keep chasing your dreams on

But the more time you spend talking big
The less you get done with life
I'll let that handful of courage in my heart

Help me survive another day
And I'll never take it for granted
Let's go!
