You were pure to me as fresh untraveled snow Skin as soft as a petal, of an uncut rose I gave you all I had Everything I owned Right down to the pedestal, I put you on And it was so easy to love you So hard to walk away.
Well, this morning when I woke up I knew everything had changed But it ain't so simple for a man Whose whole world he has to rearrange Said you've found something in another You just couldn't find in me Baby I love you so much But I guess I'll have to set you free And it was so easy to love you So hard to walk away
I've been pleading with my maker To ease this pain and take my pride But it still feels like my heart's been laid open wide My hands are shakin' as I think of all I have to do My life will never be the same Not like it was with you
Said you've found something in another You just couldn't find in me Well baby I love you so much But I guess I'll have to set you free And it was so easy to love you So hard to walk away
Lord, it was so easy to love you So hard to walk away...
