Don’t Take It That Way

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
