When Loving U Was Easy
[Intro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
[Verse 1]
I can see it in your eyes, you don't love me
And though you tried to hide, hide it from me
I know I can see the truth
So easy to love you in the beginning
And so easy to play the fool, 'cause I was willing
But it's over now
[Chorus]
When loving you was easy
When loving you was easy
Tried to make it hard for me
Still I stuck around, I was set on loving you
And no matter what you did, I stuck through it
(No, no no no no no)
When loving you was easy
Why'd you make it harder?
Why'd you make it hard for me?
When I stuck around, wishing that you'd would come around
Oh, you made it easy for me to leave you
(No, no no no no no)
[Verse 2]
It could have been so easy 'cause my heart was easy to give ya
Like second nature, lovin' you was systematic, like I was an addict
It hurt me but I couldn't get enough
It's like you hated me around, but when I left you couldn't stand it
And you needed me around
But I can't take the ups and downs
It's one thing that I found
I gotta get over you, oh yeah
[Chorus]
When loving you was easy
When loving you was easy
Tried to make it hard for me
When I stuck around, hopin' that you'd come around
And no matter what you did, I stuck through it
(No, no no no no no)
When loving you was easy
So why'd you make it harder?
Why'd you make it hard for me?
When I stuck around, wishing that you'd come around
'Cause now you made it easy for me to leave you
(No, no no no no no)
[Bridge]
I gave you everything I had
Didn't ask you for anything that I didn't give you myself (Hey!)
If you didn't want to say (Hey!)
That was all you had to say (Oh!)
'Cause although I used to love you (Love you)
And need you (Need you)
You knew that I knew we couldn't last for long
And I didn't mean to bring the choir to let you know you were wrong
[Chorus]
When loving you was easy
When loving you was easy
Ya tried to make it hard for me
When I stuck around, hopin' that you'd come around
And no matter what you did, I stuck through it all
(No, no no no no no)
When loving you was easy
Why'd you make it harder?
Why'd you make it hard for me?
And I stuck around, wishing that you'd come around (But I'm tired now, and that's why I'm leavin' you)
(No, no no no no no)
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (I'm leavin' you)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (I'm leavin' you)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh (Woo!)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
