Easy Thing To Do

(album: Something Else - 1971)

Sentimental people see the world
With the gentleness of fools
Wishful thinking makes the days go by
Every minute is a lullaby
It's the Easy Thing To Do
It's the Easy Thing To Do
And the Easy Thing To Do

Is love

Tender people still believe in love
Broken promises are few
Only hearing what they want to hear
Twisting words to make them sound sincere
It's the Easy Thing To Do
It's the Easy Thing To Do
And the Easy Thing To Do

Is love

And the world would be a better place
If it's people didn't have to lie
For the lier
Is a lier
And only fools himself

If the man could only see himself
As the younger man that grew
Love could find a place and no mistake
Wiser man and he had learned to late
It's the Easy Thing To Do
It's the Easy Thing To Do
And the Easy Thing To Do

Is love

And the world would be a better place
If it's people didn't have to lie
For the lier
Is a lier
And only fools himself

If the man could only see himself
As the younger man that grew
Love could find a place and no mistake
Wiser man and he had learned to late
It's the Easy Thing To Do
It's the Easy Thing To Do
And the Easy Thing To Do

Is love
