Take a Look

You keep hoping someday you'll have it all.
It keeps your mind chasing dreams down it's slick and darkened hall.
You just can't be happy with what you got.
Unless you own the whole damn lot.
Think about what you have, instead of what you don't have.
And you would find that you're doing better than most.
When you finally hold the things you've been longing for, you immediately think about the next.

[Chorus]
Have you ever looked around you? Have you ever enjoyed the moment?
Have you ever let yourself just simply be?
Can you think of strengths that you have, instead of what you think you need.
Did you ever question what you believe?

The grass just gets greener on the other side.
While the moment keeps passing by.
And it will never be good enough to appreciate what's already there.

And if you'd take a look, take a look around.
