Leo Sayer - Takin The Easy Way Out текст песни

Writers: leo sayer & david courtney

You contend

That youll never got back to her again

Youre as free as a night without end

So you tell your friends

Just what you had to endure

When you told her never, never again

And as the room about you starts to bend

You pretend

That youve taken the easy way out

Though you know ehn you told her last night

You were fakin the easy way out

With one hand reachin fo the door

But your feet werent movin

They were nailed to the floor

As she told you once more

Theres no easy way to get out

Shes not like you

Shed rather stay at home

n not get the blues

And if you ever do try to intrude

Shes so respectfully rude

So it was hard to believe

Last night while you were drunk n

Threatening to leave

That she walked through the door with such ease

n threw you the key

And shes takin the easy way out

And youre alone with no number to call

Shes taken the easy way out

With one hand reachin for the door

And you so speechless

Marooned on the floor

She walked out of your life

Couldnt stand it no more

Now youre all on your own

cos shes taken the easy way out

You know shes taken the easy way out

Oh, but your pride will only admit to a lie

Yeah, shes taken the easy way out

But, to your friends

Youre the hero of the night

Drowning with beef all the tears in your eyes

Hopin it dont show that youre dyin inside

cause you cant quite believe

That shes taken the easy way out

Theres no goin back now

Stuck here on your own

Lookin for a home

Drunk and on the streets

Stuck on your feet
