Easy

Hand on my cheek
A gun to my back
The wheels fell off
And we'd lost track
A nod in the mirror
A questioning eye
Now we pass in the hallway
With barely a smile
It was never meant to be

So easy
It was never meant to be
Believe me
You used to tell me
About us and the day
When it wouldn't be a struggle
When we wouldn't have to wait
But memories falter
And memories flee
See nothing was certain
And you were playing for keeps

It was never meant to be
So easy
It was never meant to be
Believe me
It was never meant to be
So easy
It was never meant to be
Believe me

We could have had it
All ourselves
The way we left it, lazy, crazy
Rotten on its shelf
I knew you'd stepped out
But I kept in time
Smiling through the pain
I do the dance I toe the line
When prayers are answered
There's nothing left
It seems that our longing
Was what kept us in the net

It was never meant to be
So easy
It was never meant to be
Believe me
It was never meant to be
So easy
It was never meant to be
Believe me
