lyrics

WAS IT EASY
words and music by
Kate Ashby-Craft and Dallas Harms

Intro

Verse One

Was it easy making love to her with my picture hanging on the wall behind

Did you tell her that you loved her just like the way you told me too

Did you silently whisper those sweet things that a woman would believe in

Well it all sounds familiar because I recall you telling me that too

Chorus

What a fool I was to fall for such an ol’ familiar line oh I thought I heard

them all a hundred thousand times but I guess I’m not immune to a sweet

talking man now my world is blue I can’t get over loving you

Verse Two
Was it easy when you said good night and kissed her soft warm lips as she was leaving did you say you’re kind of special I’ve never met no one like you when you wrapped your arms around her did you leave her with a warm and tender feeling well it all sounds familiar ‘cause I recall feeling that way too

Chorus X 2
