You may not mind that it's over But I've a different point of view Even though I am shattered It's easy for you You don't have to face the music You don't have to face the crowd Just go back where you came from You ain't even proud I had a wife and I had children I threw them all away And now you tell me, you dare to tell me I should go back to them What do you think I should say I found it hard to leave them Saddest thing I ever had to do My problems haven't started And it's easy for you I had a wife and I had children I threw them all away And now you tell me, you dare to tell me I should go back to them What do you think, what on earth do you think I should say If you ever tire of the good life Call me in a year or two I've got no choice, I'll forgive you 'Cause it's easy for you You only have to call me, it's easy for you You only have to call me, it's easy for you
