Glen Phillips - Easier lyrics

rate me

I was 18 and so were you

<br />I was that birkenstock geek rock dude

<br />You were the back flip, doe-eyed,

<br />Tree-climbing, earth-mama, beautiful evergreen girl

<br />

<br />And I never thought that I could be

<br />Gettin' my grey hair with you beside me

<br />And there's something I'm blind to but you still see

<br />

<br />And it couldn't be better, I know

<br />It shouldn't be easier to hold

<br />I should stop waiting for the other boot to fall

<br />

<br />I wanna be the toy in your cereal box

<br />I wanna be Carter at your peace talks

<br />I wanna get almost too familiar

<br />But still notice the way that you walk

<br />

<br />If you said you were going away

<br />I'd run on the tarmac

<br />And I would lay down in front of the plane

<br />Just to get you to stay

<br />

<br />Cos it couldn't be better, I know

<br />It shouldn't be easier to hold

<br />I should stop waiting for the other boot to fall

<br />

<br />Got everything I'd ever wanted here

<br />Everything, then this constant fear

<br />I'm sure I'm gonna lose it all

<br />Just waiting for the other boot to fall

<br />

<br />If you thought I could be replaced

<br />I wouldn't just stop w/ an ear

<br />I would cut off my whole fuckin' face

<br />Just to make my point clear

<br />

<br />That it couldn't be better, I know

<br />It shouldn't be easier to hold

<br />I should stop waiting for the other boot to fall

<br />I'm waiting for the other boot to fall<br /><br />
