When Loving You Was Easy

I can see it in your eyes
you don't love me
and though you tried to hide
hide it from me
I know i can see the truth
so easy to love you in the beginning
and so easy to play the fool
cuz i was willing
but it's over now

when loving you was easy
when loving you was easy
tried to make it hard for me
still i stuck around
i was set on loving you
and no matter what you did
i stuck through it

when loving you was easy
why'd you make it harder
why'd you make it hard for me
when i stuck around
wishing that you'd would come around
oh, you made it easy for me to leave you

it could have been so easy cuz
my heart was easy to give ya
like second nature
lovin you was systematic
like i was an addict
it hurt me but i couldn't get enough
it's like you hated me around
but when i left you couldn't stand it
and you needed me around
but i can't take the ups and downs
it's one thing that i found
i gotta get over you

when loving you was easy
when loving you was easy
tried to make it hard for me
when i stuck around
hopin that you'd come around
and no matter what you did
i stuck through it

when loving you was easy
so why'd you make it harder
why'd you make it hard for me
when i stuck around
wishing that you'd come around
cuz now you made it easy for me to leave you

i gave you everything i had
didn't ask you for anything that i didn't give you myself
if you didn't want to say (hey hey)
that was all you had to say
cuz although i used to love you
and need you
you knew that i knew we couldn't last for long
and i didn't mean to bring the choir to let you know you were wrong

when loving you was easy
when loving you was easy
ya tried to make it hard for me
when i stuck around
hopin that you'd come around
and no matter what you did
i stuck through it all

when loving you was easy
why'd you make it harder
why'd you make it hard for me
and i stuck around
wishing that you'd come around (but i'm tired now)
and that's why i'm leavin you

i'm leavin you
i'm leavin you
