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
