I heard that you were drunk and mean

Down at the dairy queen

There's just enough of you in me

For me to have sympathy

And take it in stride

I know I had mine

And you were as kind

I am told



Ain't it funny how we lose one day

And a lifetime

Slips away

I'm looking back on us that way

Something I

Never thought I'd say

I take it in stride

I know I had mine

It was good for a time

I am told

It was good for a time

I am told



The love you gave was not for free

But the price

Was truly fair

I never felt so glad to be

So well spent

So beyond repair

I take it in stride

At least you were mine

If not for all the time

Enough to hold

??



Now take good care that you are true

You said you found it

Hard to do

And find that bit of faith that sets you free

Having everything to prove

You take it in stride

And know you got mine

And it's good for a lifetime

Or more

I love you

I love you more and more

Oh I love you more and more
