Nields - Easy People lyrics

rate me

We sat around the table and drank a bottle of wine<br />

And it poured around us like a moat till no one could get us, and I was fine<br />

And I said, "Haven't I paid my dues by now, haven't I paid my dues by now<br />

Haven't I paid my dues by now, don't I get the right to choose?<br />

And I choose you to take up all of my time<br />

I choose you because you're funny and kind<br />

I want easy people from now on"<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

Easy people<br />

Easy people<br />

<br />

My house is full of empty rooms and broken frames and other people's stuff<br />

In my house we see by Christmas lights and your TV, and that seems to be enough<br />

To see what we want to see<br />

You let me be who I want to be<br />

And we'll be easy from now on, from now on<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

<br />

Why can't I be easy, why can't I be easy like you?<br />

<br />

For you I would give the songs I write, the words I pray, the morning light<br />

That pumps into this room today, if you would only rise, if you would only say<br />

"I want you, you take up all of my time<br />

I want you because you're funny and kind<br />

And we'll be easy from now on, from now on"<br />

<br />

Chorus
