Don't you take it too bad |
|
If you're feelin' unlovin' |
|
If you're feelin unfeelin' |
|
If you're feelin' alone |
|
Don't take it too bad |
|
'cause it ain't you to blame, babe |
|
Lord, it's just some kind of game made |
|
Out of all of this living |
|
That we got left to do |
|
And if you go searchin' |
|
For rhyme or for reason |
|
Then you won't have the time |
|
That it take just for talkin' |
|
About the places you've been, babe |
|
About the places you've seen, babe |
|
And how soft the time flies |
|
Past your window at night |
|
And we just can't have that, girl |
|
'cause it's a sad, lonesome, cold world |
|
And a man need a woman just to stand by his side |
|
And whisper sweet words in his ears about daydreams |
|
And roses and playthings |
|
And the sweetness of springtime |
|
And the sound of the rain |
