|
You call her up on the telephone |
|
You say, \"I miss you when I'm all alone\" |
|
She says, \"I'm sorry but I'm moving on\" |
|
I found somebody else while you were gone |
|
She says, don't take it that way |
|
Don't take it, don't take it that way |
|
Don't take it that way |
|
Don't take it, don't take it that way |
|
Sweet freedom of a foreign girl |
|
You took a trip all around the world |
|
Broke a promise for a heavenly thrill |
|
You said I do when you meant I will |
|
You said don't take it that way |
|
Don't take it, don't take it that way |
|
Don't take it that way |
|
Don't take it, don't take it that way |
|
Hitched a ride on a private plane |
|
You might have turned the tide back gone against the grain |
|
Stole easy money from your best friend |
|
Kind of knew you'd never see him again |
|
And then to kill some time you went to war |
|
Didn't even know what you were fighting for |
|
You were so young with prospects so poor |
|
Now what you've become no one can be sure |
|
You're still saying don't take it that way |
|
Don't take it, don't take it that way |
|
Don't take it that way |
|
Don't take it, don't take it that way |
|
Am I supposed to take it |
