surely you can sit down a while
maybe you can even smile
and i´ll try to pretend
that you love me again
but it might take me a little while

soon you´ll be holding me tight
you´ll know when the moment is right
i was broken into
it was all because of you
but baby i need you tonight

it ain´t easy to be easy you know
you´re the one who took my heart and my soul
walked away and left me out of control
it ain´t easy bein´ easy

i might end up lonely again
but once you were my closest friend
so i´ll hold you and cry
with the truth in my eyes
hopin´ you´ll love me again

it ain´t easy to be easy you know
you´re the one who took my heart and my soul
walked away and left me out of control
it ain´t easy to be easy you know
it ain´t easy when you´re needin´ someone
it ain´t easy bein´ under the gun
i´ll surrender even though i should run
it ain´t easy bein´ easy
