Lyrics

I've put my stamp on
many sad love songs
made too many mistakes to count
I've built up walls
and torched down the tallest bridges
there's not much about love
I don't doubt
but as hard as it is to hold it all together
as bad as it gets
and then worse
the thing about love that never
gives you any trouble
is the part that most people think hurts

it's not the touchin
not the holdin
or the happy hopin that starts
it's not the kissin
it's not the missn
or the beating in your heart
you don't have to make love work so hard
cause the love
is the easy part

it comes out of nowhere
you don't stand a chance
you can fight it as hard as you please
but as soon as it spots you
it won't rest until it's got you
it's a beautiful prison
and there's no release
but the longer you hide from it
the stronger it decides to get
the tighter it's grip on your heart
but the thing about love
that comes as natural as you're breathing
is the most likely thing
to tear you apart

it's not the touchin
not the holdin
or the happy hopin that starts
it's not the kissin
not the missin
or the beating in your heart
you don't have to make
love work so hard
cause the love
is the easy part

so tear down those walls
and put some steppin stones
where the bridge was
cause it's out there
just waitin
and it's really not that hard
cause the love
oh the love
is the easy part
