It Was So Easy Lyrics
(Carly Simon/Jacob Brackman)I remember a time, rompin' through the woodsSun against our skin instead of clothesWhen we felt hungry we would eat, whn we felt glad we would danceAnd whenever we felt drowsy we would dozeIt was so easy then never takin' any standsIt was so easy then, holdin' handsI remember a time when our fears could be namedAnd courage meant not refusing daresI remember when we took such cares to step never on the cracks,No only on the squaresOr else we'd be abducted by the bearsIt was so easy then never makin' any plansIt was so easy then, holdin' handsIt was so easy then never makin' any plansIt was so easy then, holdin' handsAnd now we are grown, with debts and regretsAnd broken hearts and sentimental schemesNow every tender failure seems to overthrow old dreamsLove can lead a normal woman to extremesIt was so easy once, holdin' hands without a planIt was so easy once holdin' handsJust holdin' hands
Carly Simon It Was So Easy
