Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It was never easy lover
When you've given all you've got to each other
And then every time, it's hard to recover
We're only young, we're only young
[Verse 2]
It was never easy lover
I just wanted you to pull for me closer
Yet you always seem to go even further
We are only young
We are only young
[PreChorus]
And I've been walking in a straight line, finding this again
But every time I leave, you pull me back in
[Chorus]
Easy lover
Keep it cool on me
Don't be cruel to me
'Cause I know you've done it before
Easy lover
Keep it cool on me
Give it all to me
'Cause I know you've done it before
Easy lover
Easy lover
[Verse 3]
Ay, Hey, Ay, Hey, look
Time gone past but all of these feelings hadn't
You know that life that we pictured, I still imagine it
A whole city in between us and we still attached
You used to have so many layers till I cut 'em back
I see the fire in your eyes, that mean we still a match
You think you better off without me but it isn't fact
Okay, you mad at me, I had to man up, you know I changed the whole mentality
I'm hung up on the pictures that you sent me, made a gallery
The captions be about me but not @ing me
Don't understand these type of things
I don't understand these type of games
And I know they say that
Everything that's easy ain't worth it and everything that's worth it ain't go be easy
I made mistakes, you can't say that I repeated
I wouldn't still be here if I didn't need ya
[Chorus]
Easy lover
Keep it cool on me
Don't be cruel to me
'Cause I know you've done it before
Easy lover
Keep it cool on me
Give it all to me
'Cause I know you've done it before
[Chorus]
Easy lover (Easy lover, easy)
Easy lover (Easy, easy lover)
'Cause I know you've done It before
Easy lover (Easy, easy lover)
Easy lover
[Bridge]
It's gone too far and too deep
I can't sleep
I'm still foolishly in love with you
Just like all the other girls, you promised
I can't stop believing you want me
And you're foolishly in love
But you're not so I take a shot
[Chorus]
Easy lover
Keep it cool on me
Don't be cruel to me ('Cause I know you've done it before)
Easy lover
Keep it cool on me
Give it all to me
'Cause I know you've done it before
[Chorus]
Easy lover (Easy lover, easy)
Easy lover
'Cause I know you've done It before
Easy lover (Ah, ah, ah)
Easy lover (Ah, ah, ah)
