No Easy Way

Close your heart

Close your eyes

Fake a kiss and

Say goodbye

When you know it's not the way

And you're leaving home today

Anger rises

The deed is done

Just to say you

Can't go on

When you know that's not the way

Yet you're leaving home today

If I see a tear in your eye

It's an easy way

To say goodbye

You're afraid

So you lie

Sometime this will

Get you by

But you know that's not the way (know it's not the way)

And I trust you anyway (trust you anyway)

Harmony

But not for long

Plain to see

We're doing something wrong

Even though you've gone away (though you've gone away)

I still love you

But if I see a tear in your eye

It's an easy way

To say goodbye, oh

To say goodbye, oh, bye

To say goodbye

Sent you Rilke

By hand

Hoping you

Would understand

Don't you know that's not my way (know that's not my way)

I was missing you today (missing you today)

Anger rises

The deed is done

Just to say that (ah)

You can't go on

When you know that's not my way (know that's not my way)

'Cause I still love you anyway (love you anyway)

After all we've

Said and done

Can't you see

We can't go on?

'Cause God knows there's no easy way

To say goodbye
