EASY


It took some time to realize
all the lies you put on me
easy to say
and easy to weave
easy to convince and believe
I was a little too easy to please
just a little too easy to leave

Did you think
you could find a truer love
than the truth you found in me
never easy to understand
but always easy to see
always on display
too easy to take what all you need
too easy
in too many ways

Did I make it
just a little too easy to play
a little too easy to lose your way
easy to hold and let go
easy to walk away
with nothing to owe
and no one to pay
Sometimes love
is just a little too easy to stay.
