Lyrics:

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, so beyond repair

And 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've got mine
And it's good for a lifetime or more
Hey, I love you, I love you more and more

Oh, I love you more and more, yeah
