- Heather Headley Easy As Life 歌詞
- Heather Headley
- This is the moment when
The gods expect me to beg for help But I wont even try I want nothing in the world But myself to protect me And I wont lie down, roll over, and die All I have to do is forget how much I love him All I have to do is put my longing to one side Tell myself that loves an ever-changing situation Passion would have cooled and all the magic Would have died Its easy, its easy All I have to do is to pretend I never knew him On those very rare occasions when he steals into my heart Better to have lost him when the ties were barely binding Better the contempt of the familiar cannot start Its easy, its easy Until I think about him as he was when I last touched him And how he would have been, were I to be with him today Those very rare occasions dont let up, they keep on coming All Ive ever wanted and Im throwing it away Its easy, its easy as life But then I see the faces of a worn, defeated people A father and a nation who wont let a coward run Is this how the gods reward the faithful through the ages? Forcing us to move and theyre the hardest things weve done Theyre easy, so easy And though Ill think about him Til the earth draws in around me And though I choose to leave him for another kind of love This is no denial, no betrayal, but redemption Redeemed in my own eyes and in the pantheon above Its easy, its easy as life Its easy as life Its easy as life!
