"Let Me Down Easy"

Let me down easy
Let me down easy
Let me down easy
Let me down easy

When I rest my weary head
After all my words are said
When my eyelids close with the weight of a 100 years
Please let me down easy, let me down easy

My boat can slip away into a clamer sea
Let me down easy
I know there'll be nothing to fear

Let me down easy
Let me down easy
Let me down easy
Let me down easy

My body slips away out into weightlessness
Let me down easy
Now I know that there's nothing to fear

Let me down easy
Let me down easy
Let me down easy
Let me down easy

When I rest my aching heart
After it's been torn apart
When my tears have flowed on the tide of a 100 seas
Please let me down easy, let me down easy

Affection slips away into my memory
Let me down easy
There's a better time waiting for me

Let me down easy
Let me down easy
Let me down easy
Let me down easy
