It Ain't Easy Being Easy

Janie Fricke

Surely you can sit down a while
Maybe you can even smile
And I'll try to pretend that you love me again
But it might take me a little while

I know you'll be holding me tight
You know when the moment is right
When I was broken in two, it was all because of you
But baby, I need you tonight

And it ain't easy being easy,no
You're the one who took my heart and my soul
Walked away and left me out of control
It ain't easy being easy, no

No, it ain't easy when you're needing someone
And it ain't easy being under the gun
And I'll surrender even though I should run
And it ain't easy being easy

I might end up lonely again
But once you were my only friend
So I'll hold you and cry with the truth in my eyes
Hoping you'll love me again

And it ain't easy being easy, no
You're the one who took my heart and my soul
Walked away and left me out of control
And it ain't easy being easy, no

No, it ain't easy when you're needing someone
And it ain't easy being under the gun
And I'll surrender even though I should run
And it ain't easy being easy

No, it ain't easy being easy
No, it ain't easy being easy
