I see the child in the frame
Wish I could tell him you're not your mistakes
If God gives you something you don't think you want
Don't you forget just how lucky you are
Can't catch the tears from your eyes
Daddy might not make it home every night
I'm always with you no matter how far
Don't you forget just how lucky you are
Ooh,
even the bad times might make you laugh Ooh,
live every day like it might be your last
But you'll be alright,
it'll be alright
I know it feels like a dream
Faking a smile while you rip at the seams
No way to measure the pain in your heart
But don't you forget just how lucky you are
Ooh,
even the bad times might make you laugh Ooh,
live every day like it might be your
last But you'll be alright,
it'll be alright
Flowers don't grow in the dark You
can't make a wish without looking at
stars With all of the bruises and all of the scars
Don't you forget just how lucky you are
I won't forget just how lucky we are
