Lyrics
MAKE IT EASY ON YOURSELF
© 1991 LARRY MANGUM / GOOD OL SONGS BMI
THEY ALWAYS SAID WE'D NEVER MAKE IT, OUR DIFFERENT WORLDS WOULD SOON COLLIDE
A COUNTRY BOY THAT'S USE TO STRUGGLE, A CITY GIRL WITH CITY PRIDE
THEY SAID THAT ALL WE HAD IN COMMON, WAS LOVER'S HEARTS THAT BEAT AS ONE
WE CAN'T MAKE IT TURN OUT BETTER, JUST TO PROVE THAT THEY WERE WRONG
JUST MAKE IT EASY ON YOURSELF, DON'T GIVE ME A SECOND THOUGHT
WITHOUT ME TO DRAG YOU DOWN, MAYBE YOU'D BE BETTER OFF
IF LOVE WAS ALL IT TOOK TO KEEP YOU, I 'D NEVER HAVE TO LET YOU GO
BUT IF YOU THINK THERE'S NOTHING LEFT, GO AND FIND YOU SOMEONE ELSE
MAKE IT EASY ON YOURSELF
I KNOW I SAID I'D BUILD YOU CASTLES, AND SOME MIGHT CALL OUR HOME A SHACK
IT SEEMS FOR EACH STEP WE TAKE FORWARD, WE WIND UP SLIPPIN TWO STEPS BACK
WE'RE ALWAYS PLANTING SEED TOGETHER, THAT START TO GROW AND THEN JUST DIE
BUT IF LEAVIN' MAKES IT BETTER, YOU'D BETTER LEAVE BEFORE I CRY
