If Love Was Easy - Ron Pope

On the floor because the bed was angry

Rhapsody in technicolor shades

You got a way of making me a liar

In spite of my instincts to run away

I wake up feeling seasick but I’m staying

Outside of you dying for a change

Burned my house to embers for this moment

As your shadow swallows all my pain

If love was easy, everybody’d do it

If love was easy, you would still be here

Just 'cause it was good once doesn’t mean there’s nothing to it

If love was easy, everybody’d do it

Couldn’t help myself and said «I love you»

You didn’t say it back, but that’s all right

Sat there in the bathtub getting wrinkled

Soaking in the silence as the night

Etched your angles on my hippocampus

Where I keep these treasures you can’t steal

There are times remembering you is a poison

At least the scars remind me you were real

If love was easy, everybody’d do it

If love was easy, you would still be here

Just 'cause it was good once doesn’t mean there’s nothing to it

If love was easy, everybody’d do it

My lock found a key for a while or so it seemed

Woke up in Valhalla and we brought the gods down to their knees

If we couldn’t make it last, well who on earth is playing for keeps?

If love was easy, everybody’d do it

If love was easy, you would still be here

Just 'cause it was good once doesn’t mean there’s nothing to it

If love was easy, everybody’d do it

If love was easy, everybody’d do it

If love was easy, everybody’d do it
