The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Let me down easy Though your love for me is gone Let me down easy Since you feel that staying is wrong? We are broken by others But we mend ourselves We take comfort in strangers But I don't think it helps If every fool were a clown I would be a king and not a clown Cause love can't? Closer than our hands and our feet But it's lost on me Oh oh It's lost on me Your love for me is wrong Let me down easy since you feel that staying is wrong? There was no sweeter fruit than this With no taste of bitterness It was so fresh and sweet before But I can't taste it anymore I was like a man with no candy? I had everything But as long as? Your love for me is wrong Let me down easy Your love for me is gone Let me down easy Since you feel that staying is wrong? On a better day we'd be waiting on our corner Selling dreams of redemption But this time you've gone your way So I'll go mine Out of sight, out of love, out of time Your love for me is wrong Let me down easy Your love for me is gone Let me down easy Since you feel that staying is wrong? Let me down easy
