Every time I think I got it all figured out
Then I draw a blank
and my whole world crashes down
So many people have got it worse than me
But that could change tomorrow,
ain't no guarantee (chorus)
How soon we forget
To count every blessing
If you think you got it bad take a look around
How soon we forget
That life is one big lesson
Still we make the same mistakes
time and time again
How soon we forget Got a freind of mine
who says he's run all out of luck
But he'll be fine,
'cause he just ain't drunk enough The world is empty
when you're slammin' those shots down How can you be happy, son
when the devil's hangin' 'round How soon we forget
To count every blessing
If you think you got it bad
take a look around
How soon we forget
That life is one big lesson
Still we make the same mistakes
time and time again
How soon we forget
How soon we forget Just remember, thank God you're here today
If you got the will you can find a way How soon we forget... oh, baby
How soon we forget
To count every blessing
If you think you got it bad take a look around
How soon we forget
That life is one big lesson
Still we make the same mistakes
time and time again There's a message to this madness here my freind
Will we ever learn before the story ends Soon we all forget
How soon we forget
Soon we forget.. ooh
Take a look around and you will see Soon we all forget... oh
So many people have got it worse than me
Oh.. can't you see
How soon we all forget
