Easy Way Out – Jack Wagner

When the going gets tough, and it’s heard to look into my eyes, oh
You want to run away, run away, run away and just say goodbye
Why don’t you open up? you find it easier to tell me a lie, oh
You want to break away, break away, break away but don’t even try
Little girl, didn’t I show you how to love? Oh
What were you thinking of?

That’s the easy way out
That’s the easy way out
That’s the easy way out
And that’s not what love’s all about

You ain’t some kid no more and I think it’s time that you get wise, oh yeah
You’re not a runaway, runaway, runaway trying to hide
You can’t come running back every time you feel a bit insecure, oh no
Just to break away, break away, break away when you’ve had the cure
Little girl, didn’t I show you how to love? Oh
What were you thinking of?

That’s the easy way out
That’s the easy way out
That’s the easy way out
And that’s not what love’s all about

You know that I love you
You know that I think the world of you
You know that I love you
And baby, that’s worth holding on to, oh, oh

Little girl, didn’t I give you all my love? Oh
What were you thinking of?

That’s the easy way out
That’s the easy way out
That’s the easy way out
And that’s not what love’s all about
