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 this 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 and so beyond repair

I take it in stride, at least you were mine if not for all time

Enough to hold or at least, enough for me to hold you 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 from having everything to prove

And you take it in stride and know you got mine

And it's good for a lifetime or more Yeah, I love you, I love you more and more

Oh I love you more and more
