Some folks take their pleasure slow,
Others like it fast
And some folks lose their futures by
Living in the past
If you win by taking you might
Lose your chance to win
And if you lose of heartache you
Are bound to love again
......love again
Every single daytime
Loses out to night
And every bit of darkness well
It uses up the light
You were my religion even
Though you're just a man
And man will go on lovin'
So we're bound to lose again, lose again
......lose again
My cat is meditating
And my dog is scratching fleas
And me I think too much,
Most people think too much to see
We think too much of loving
And we lose more than we win
And woman dies of giving
But she's bound to live again
.......live again
We think too much of loving
To love all that we can
And woman dies of giving
But she's bound to live again
