Song Lyrics

No, no, no, no
Nothing is easy

All I have to do is forget how much I love him
All I have to do is put my longing to one side
Tell myself that love's an ever changing situation
Passion would have cooled, and all the magic would have died
It's easy as life

I try to forget how much I want him here
Then my dreams slowly disappear
I cannot forget that my emotions die
Oh I don't even want to try
Nothing in life is ever easy
Nothing in love will ever run true
My heart will never stop believing
I still believe in what love can do

All I have to do is pretend I never knew you
On those very rare occasions when you steal into my heart
Better to have lost you when the ties were barely binding
Better the contempt of the familiar cannot stop
It's easy as life

I try to forget how much I want him here
Then my dreams slowly disappear
I cannot forget that my emotions die
Oh I don't even want to try
Nothing in life is ever easy
Nothing in love will ever run true
My heart will never stop believing
I still believe in what love can do

It hurts to think about you
When I want to touch you
And how we would have been
If you were here with me today
Those very rare occasions
They keep on coming
All I ever wanted
I'm throwing it away

Nothing in life is ever easy
Nothing in love will ever run true
My heart will never stop believing
I still believe in what love can do

Nothing in life is ever easy
Nothing in love will ever run true
My heart will never stop believing
I still believe in what love can do
