"Go Easy"


Looking at me you never find out what a working man's about:
Raving all night, sleeping away the day.
Something to ask,
Something to say,
Something to keep the pain away;
Something I'd like to see if it's alright.

Life, go easy on me;
Love, don't pass me by.

Spending my time, making it shine, gotta throw away the rest,
Look at the ways to vent and amaze my mind.
Something I need,
Something I plea for,
Something I have to say;
Something to keep me safe while I'm away.

Life, go easy on me;
Love, don't pass me by.
Life, go easy on me;
Love, don't pass me by.

One way for me, one way for you, one way for all of us
To get back home, do whatever we want to do.
Nothing to tell you,
Nothing to show,
Nothing that you don't know.
Something to play,
Something to say for now.

Life, go easy on me;
Love, don't pass me by.
Life, go easy on me;
Love, don't pass me by.
Love, don't pass me by...
