easy |
|
easy |
|
my man and me |
|
we could rest and remain here easily |
|
we are tested and pained by what's beyond our bed |
|
we're blessed and sustained by what is not said |
|
no one knows what is coming |
|
who will harvest what we have sown |
|
or how i've been dulling and dulling |
|
in the service of the heart alone |
|
or how i am warmed to the bone by the river |
|
and in the river, made a life |
|
i'm your little life-giver |
|
i will give my life |
|
have you seen what i've seen? |
|
don't you know what you ought to do? |
|
i was born to love |
|
and i intend to love you |
|
down in the valley, where the fields of green |
|
watch my luck turn full into love |
|
paralyzed daisy, cling 'til only i may love you |
|
i am easy |
|
easy to keep |
|
honey, you please me |
|
even in your sleep |
|
but my arms want to carry |
|
my heart wants to hold |
|
tell me your worries: |
|
i want to be told |
|
sit and see how the fog from the port in the bay |
|
lays like snow at the foot of the Roanoke |
|
hear the frog going courtin' |
|
'til the day he croaks |
|
saying even then, 'how there is light in the river |
|
there's a river made of light |
|
c'mon, you little light-giver |
|
give your light' |
|
who asked, who asked you if you wanna be |
|
loved by me? |
|
who died and made you |
|
in charge of who loves who? |
|
i (..) |
|
if i have my way, i will love you |
|
want can't carry the weight |
|
change the fate of two |
|
i've been waiting for a break |
|
how long's it gonna take? let me love you |
|
how about it? how about what i have to say? |
|
how about if i (..) |
|
how'm i gonna stay here without you? |
