Lyrics:

You said so yourself
I always took the easy way out
But you can't see me coming down
When you're jumping ship
I thought we wanted more
I guess I was wrong

Chorus:
You can't take the easy way out
It's not so easy now
You can't take the easy way out
It's not that easy now
You can't take that easy way
And you'll think I'll stay
But like the years
I'm drifting away

You said so yourself
This time
I won't take the easy way out
The truth is what I'm all about
But I should have known
You're the same way you were before
(Time has come and gone.)
I guess I was wrong

Chorus:
You can't take the easy way out
It's not so easy now
You can't take the easy way out
It's not that easy now
You can't take that easy way
And you'll think I'll stay
But like the years
I'm drifting away

Drifting away(2x)

Can't take the easy way out (3x)

It's not that easy now

Can't take the easy way out (3x)
