Take it easy, love on me Don't start thinking I'm something that I'll never be Just need me as much as need be Take it easy, love on me Many's the man who'll drive himself crazy tonight Over some kind of woman who he says ain't treating him right Expecting of someone is quick to be taking its toll And if you're not careful, you wake up lonely and old Take it easy, love on me Don't start thinking I'm something that I'll never be Just need me as much as need be Take it easy, love on me Now dreaming and planning are things I guess all of us do And sooner or later, we all play the part of a fool But those in a hurry to unpack their bank full of dreams Are quick to be victims of the lies and the lust and the schemes Take it easy, love on me Don't start thinking I'm something that I'll never be Just need me as much as need be Take it easy, love on me Take it easy, love on me
