Easy People
We sat around the table and we drank a bottle of wine
and it poured around us like a moat, and no one could get us
and I was fine, and I said,
"Haven't I paid my dues by now?
Haven't I paid my dues?
Haven't I paid my dues by now, and don't I get the right to choose?"
Well, I choose you to take up all of my time
I choose you because you're funny and kind
I want easy people from now on
Easy people
Easy people
My house is full of empty rooms and broken frames
and other people's stuff
In my house, we see by Christmas lights and your TV
and that seems to be enough to see what we want to see
You let me be who I want to be
and we'll be easy from now on
Easy people Easy people
Why can't I be easy
Why can't I be easy like you?
Oh, to you I would give the songs I write, the words I pray, and the morning light
that pumps into this room today, if you would only rise
if you would only say, "I want you to take up all of my time
I want you because you're funny and kind
And we'll be easy from now on."
Easy people
Easy people Easy people
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
