The Easy Ones

You can't just love the easy ones

You can't just love the easy ones

You've got to let them in when you'd rather just run

You can't just love the easy ones

You can't just play the simple songs

You can't just play the simple songs

You gotta knuckle down 'til your fingers are raw

You can't just play the simple songs

When I can face the ones I fear

It'll all become clear

Oh when I embrace the ones I fear

It'll all become clear

You can't just walk the shortest road

You can't just walk the shortest road

You've got to straighten your back 'neath the heaviest load

You can't just walk the shortest road

When I can face the ones I fear

It'll all become clear

Oh when I embrace the ones I fear

It'll all become clear

For all the suffering souls beside me

I pray love will guide me

I pray love will guide me home

You can't just love the easy ones

You can't just love the easy ones

You've got to let them in deep when you'd rather just run

You can't just love the easy ones
