Lyrics

While Easy Slips Away

Calm down baby, don't you stray now

As good fortune walks away

It's important on the other side

What you do today

You know you can go on

And nothing can go wrong

But I keep remembering...

Who used to know?

Who used to go?

You used to say

Easy come while easy slips away

Heaven knows how hard the change is

It's all left up to you

You can buy a place in paradise

With such a poignant view

Now everything that was

Is nothing more than loss

But I'll keep the memory...

Who used to know?

Who used to go?

You used to say

Easy come while easy slips away
