Taking The Easy Way Out

(альбом: Roll On Mississippi - 1981)

Letting me down easy would be the loving thing to do
You could take it step by step till I get used to losing you
Now I can't really blame you if the feeling has disappeared
But you won't even look me in the eye

Oh you're taking the easy way out taking the easy way out
At least you could've told me a lie
But you're taking the easy way out taking the easy way out
Not even saying goodbye

It may be hard to face me but it's twice as hard to watch you go
Goodbyes are never easy but you could have let me know
Now I don't mean to criticize you I'm not trying to put you down
I just thought that you would be a little kinder

Oh but you're taking the easy way out taking the easy way out
At least you could've told me a lie
But you're taking the easy way out taking the easy way out
Not even saying goodbye
