It's Never That Easy / I've Been Here Before

You just met him, yes, i know

This is lasting, this will grow

But oh, it's never that easy

Believe me, it isn't at all

You are starstruck, so was i

I would love him, till i die

But oh, it's never that easy

My darling, not easy at all

All your life you'll be with him

Think of that, think it through

He may chase some crazy whim

When he does, you'll go too

And you'll lose him now and then

But each morning start again

And oh, some days you'll be happy

But it won't be easy

It's never that easy

You think so, but no

Oh no, i know

It isn't at all.

Woman 2

The man says things he needs to say

Turns to smile as he stands at my door

And then i see his eyes are grey

Oh god i've been here before

To want him makes no sense at all

Then we talk and out his feelings pour

Inside all my defences fall

Oh yes i've been here before

The man's all wrong

That's all that's true

And what is worse

This time good god he's twenty-two

And since it's wrong, before we start

Why should i rush to prove that i can break my heart all over?

The man leaves and i'm on my own

I sit here and simply watch the door

And tell myself i'm fine alone

Oh yes, i've been here before

Oh yes, i've been here before
