Dar Williams - The Easy Way lyrics
rate me<br>I knew a guy I thought he was my first love <br>But he had to decide?between me and the one before <br>And she stacked it all up <br>Like a house of cards <br>That if he didn?t come back <br>He?d find her flattened on the floor <br>And though I went and lived in my own hell <br>Thought that I could die as well <br>I Let him go where he thought he had to go <br> <br>Chorus <br>Cause I never took heavy words for granted <br>And I never took the undeserved advantage <br>No I never took the easy way <br>So why don?t you take it a little easy on me now <br> <br>I know the road has so many questions <br>And I thought I could explode <br>Just for some attention <br>I could acolyte I saw the flames of towering tapers <br>I was prophesized by the flaming piles of papers <br>Yeah I watched the power huddles <br>And their coats draped over puddles <br>And trust me baby I?m the one you need <br> <br>Chorus <br>But I never took heavy words for granted <br>And I never took the undeserved advantage <br>No I never took the easy way <br>So why don?t you take it a little easy on me now <br> <br>We don?t want to be the ones <br>Who lie and cheat and slander <br>So we hold each other up <br>To the higher standards <br>But I?ll tell you what <br>I never tried to make it hard <br>Cause when your hard just to be hard <br>The only thing that?s hard is you <br> <br>So heres what I took <br>I kept the wine and laughter <br>And tell every path <br>That you?ll screw up in ever after <br>Yeah through the peaks and twisty canyons <br>I made many great companions <br>Best of all is the one that loves me like you do <br> <br>Chorus x 2 <br>But I never took heavy words for granted <br>And I never took the undeserved advantage <br>No I never took the easy way <br>So why don?t you take it a little easy on me now <br> <br>2nd Chorus <br> <br>Cause I never took heavy words for granted <br>And it?s much too late to even want the shortcut <br>Yeah I never took the easy way <br>So why don?t you take it a little easy on me now <br>Cause we know that easy never easy anyhow<br><!-- stopprint -->
