It's Not Easy

(album: Eric Is Here - 1967)

Hey girl, what can I do with you
When you take this ol' heart and tear it in two
Is it asking so much for you to be true
I'm an easy going man who takes all that he can

But I tell you
It's not easy loving you, baby
It's not easy wanting you so
It's not easy loving you, baby
But it's harder, girl, to let you go
Harder, girl, to let you go

Girl, I give everything I've got inside
How much more do you need to keep you satisfied
I put up with so much, Lord knows I've tried
And in spite of all the pain, I try not to complain

But I tell you
It's not easy loving you, baby
It's not easy wanting you so
It's not easy loving you, baby
But it's harder, girl, to let you go
Harder, girl, to let you go

It's not easy loving you, baby
No, it's not easy
It's not easy loving you so
Loving you, baby
It's not easy loving you, baby
It's not easy
Loving you so...
