John Grant
It’s Easier
[Verse 1]
I don't know who I thought I was
I guess I tried to love you
Because I thought I could afford
To take the risk and take a chance
I did not know who I thought I was fooling
I must have felt invincible in your arms
Like I could take the whole world on

[Chorus]
But it's easier for me to believe that you are lying to me
When you say you love me and when you say you need me
Yes, it's easier for me to walk away and get on with my life
If I believed that you were deceiving me
If I believed that you'd be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day

[Verse 2]
I wish that I could make you see, but clearly that is not to be
Cause you will not be swayed by me
You've made it clear, you must be free
I would have sacrificed for you
I would have been so loyal and so true
But gifts this precious can't be offered up by fools
[Chorus]
And it's easier for me to believe that you are lying to me
When you say you love me and when you say you need me
Yes, it's easier for me to walk away and get on with my life
If I believed that you were deceiving me
If I believed that you'd be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day

[Bridge]
What's done is done
I cannot change the way I feel
And what's more, I am certain that I don't regret a single thing
But sometimes I really miss your sweet, sweet love
And wish that I'd wake up, and this would all be just a dream

[Chorus]
Yes, it's easier for me to believe that you are lying to me
When you say you love me and when you say you need me
Yes, it's easier for me to walk away and get on with my life
If I believed that you were deceiving me
If I believed that you'd be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day
Be leaving me one day
