Easier to Cry

[Verse 1]

Cigarette between her fingers

And a drink in her hand

She thought about the days

When her looks were still in demand

And wondered where the time had gone

When did everything go wrong

No more flowers at her door

No more phone calls to wait up for

[Pre-Chorus]

And she just wanted to die

But it was easier, it was easier

[Chorus]

To cry, cry

To cry, cry

[Verse 2]

Remembered fingers running through her hair as she wept

Got up to fix another drink

And cursed the memory she kept

When Jack would ease her heavy heart

And Jim would keep her from the dark

Woke up in her clothes and she smiled

And said romance was out of style

[Pre-Chorus]

She just wanted to die

But it was easier, it was easier

[Chorus]

To cry, cry

To cry, cry

[Bridge]

They're just tears for the cause

Tracks for the lost

Betrayed by the heart

Waiting for sorrow to dissolve

[Pre-Chorus]

But it's so easy to

It's so easy to

...

[Chorus]

To cry, cry

To cry, cry

To cry, cry

To cry, cry

To cry, cry

To cry
