Many's the time I've been moved or inclined
To write maybe a song about love
Takin' the words as they come to my mind
And I send them along with my love

Just me and a melody
Sailing peacefully along
All was right with the world and me
Until love went wrong

Just yesterday I heard somebody
Say I'd forget you
If I could, but I can't, so I won't even try
If I had my way I'd forget
You today in a minute
But it's easier said than
Trying to say goodbye
Casually dressed, I'm surviving I guess
I guess only the time will tell
It don't really matter much where I go next
Just as long as it turns out well

Slow feet on a movin' street
And the folks I meet all know
I ain't half as happy as I was a week ago

Just yesterday I heard somebody
Say I'd forget you
If I could, but I can't, so I won't even try
If I had my way I'd forget
You today in a minute
But it's easier said than
Trying to say goodbye, oh yeah
But it's easier said than
Trying to say goodbye, allright
But it's easier said than
Trying to say goodbye
