Lyrics

should've been easy
(verse)
i should've opened up the blinds,
and i'd have known the storm was coming.
but i was taken by surprise.
i hadn't brushed my hair in days.
you know it's easy to make friends with the tv screen.
cause it has more to say than you did to me.

(chorus)
so tell me why's it so hard to walk the other way?
why's it so hard to wipe those tears away?
why's it so hard when deep down we know we're through?
why's it so hard?
it should've been easy.
it should've been easy.
it should've been easy to let you go.

(verse)
i thought a good day was a day without a fight.
baby can i peel you a grape?
anything to make you smile,
cause smiles don't come easy when you're stuck in a storm.
and, it rained for 90 days.
i couldn't take 100 more.

(chorus)
so tell me why's it so hard to walk the other way?
why's it so hard to wipe those tears away?
why's it so hard when deep down we know we're through?
why's it so hard?
it should've been easy.
it should've been easy.
it should've been easy to let you go.


(bridge)
and I suspect that you'll come running back to me,
but you should know times have changed.
i'm not the same little girl who'll tell you "everything's ok."

(chorus)
