Easy

[Chorus 1]

Easy, easy, my man and me

We could rest and remain here, easily

We are tested and pained by what's beyond our bed

We're blessed and sustained by what is not said

[Verse 1]

No one knows what is coming

Or who will harvest what we have sown

Or how I've been dulling and dumbing

In the service of the heart alone

[Verse 2]

Or how I am worn to the bone by the river

And, in the river made of light

I'm your little life-giver

I will give my life

[Verse 3]

Haven't you seen what I've seen?

Don't you know what you ought to do?

I was born to love

And I intend to love you

[Verse 4]

Down in the valley where the fields are green

Watch my luck turn fro and to

Pluck every last daisy clean

'Til only I may love you

[Chorus 2]

I am easy, easy to keep

Honey, you please me, even in your sleep

But my arms want to carry, my heart wants to hold

Tell me your worries. I want to be told

[Verse 5]

Sit and see how the fog from the port in the bay

Lays like snow at the foot of the Roanoke

Hear the frog going courting

'Til the day he croaks

[Verse 6]

Saying even then how there is light in the river

And there's a river made of light

C'mon, you little life-giver

Give your life

[Verse 7]

Who asked you, asked you

If you want to be loved by me?

Who died and made you in charge of who loves who?

All the livelong day, if I have my way, I will love you

[Verse 8]

But One can't carry the weight

Or change the fate of Two

I've been waiting for a break, how long's it gonna take?

Let me love you

[Verse 9]

How about it?

How about what I have to say?

How about that livelong day?

How am I gonna stay here without you?

[Chorus 3]

Easy, easy, you must not fear

You must meet me, to see me, I am barely here

But like a Bloody Mary seen in the mirror

Speak my name and I appear

[Refrain]

Speak my name and I appear

Speak and I appear
