Lyrics
she said he's just a friend of mine
a shoulder that I can lean on
from time to time
maybe I'm a jealous guy
but I feel like the harder I try
the less happens
this leaking ship needs mending
every river leads to it's ending
you want to let me down easy
though it doesn't seem easy to me
a slow-motion fall from the tall
buildings to the crowded street
the good times yeah, they're still good
but the bad times feel worse than they should feel
you want to let me down easy
our backs on the bedroom floor
we whisper why it's different
than the ones we knew before
spring was innocence and bliss
summer wild inconsequence
but this is real
the leaves in central park
glow like embers as a clock tower chimes through the dark
you want to let me down easy
but that's the hardest way I know
a subtile change turns great and strange
until we're unidentifiable
the good times yeah, they're still good
but the bad times feel worse than they should feel
you want to let me down easy
all my letters
you have yet to read
what do you need?
please take it from me
october rain
the crows circling
your eyes mystifying
showing me something you don't see
you're going to let me down easy
the good times, they're still good
but the bad times are so much worse than they should be
you want to let me down
oh don't let me down
you're gonna let me down
easy, now
