TAKE IT EASY ON ME by Little River Band

It used to be so easy to be your lover

We wandered through the days like they had no end

But now that you are gone I'm undercover

I just can't think about you as a friend

Take it easy on me

It should be easy to see

I'm getting lost in a crowd

Hear me cryin' out loud

I just want you to know

I know that you have to go

It's all up to you

But whatever you do

Take it easy on me

So now I'll go the minstrel road without you

I know there will be times when I'll need you there

And each night as I sing those songs about you

I'll think back to the time when you used to care

Take it easy on me

It should be easy to see

I'm getting lost in a crowd

Hear me cryin' out loud

I just want you to know

I know that you have to go

It's all up to you

But whatever you do

Take it easy on me

Take it easy on me

Oh baby don't leave me cryin'

It should be easy to see

I've needed you for so long

Just one more chance, will you

Take a chance come on and take a chance

Take it easy on me

It should be easy to see

I'm getting lost in a crowd

Hear me cryin' out loud

Just want you to know

I know that you have to go

It's all up to you

But whatever you do

Take it easy on me

It's all up to you

But whatever you do

Take it easy on me
