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
