LOVE, COME EASY

young man sitting on his porch at night 
he’s sitting there watching with eyes open wide 
thinking love might just walk on by 

but it don’t come now and it didn’t come then 
sometimes you just can’t know when 
even when you feel it 
coming around the corner 

he’s thinking, 

love, come easy 
love, come easy 

now switch the scene to a café shop 
a woman walks in from the parking lot 
she’s covered in rain and filled with thoughts of loneliness 

she takes her coffee black 
as she wonders where the hell she’s out 
how love could escape her grasp once again 

she’s thinking, 

love, come easy 
love, come easy 
love, come easy 
love, come easy 

if the two of them should meet 
somewhere there out on the street 
is it love that might set them free 

but they just keep their heads down 
praying what’s been lost will become found 
and love will come easy 

but love don’t come easy 
love, come easy 
love, come easy 
love, come easy
