Don't Take It Too Bad

Don't you take it too bad, if you're feeling unloving

If you're feeling unfeeling, if you're feeling alone

Don't you take it too bad, 'cause it ain't you to blame, babe

It's only a game, man, and of all of this living that we got left to do

And if you go searching for rhyme or for reason

Then you won't have the time that it takes just for talking

About the places you've been, babe, 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 needs a woman just to stand by his side

Whisper sweet words in his ears about daydreams, roses, and playthings

And the sweetness of springtime and the sound of the rain
