If Leaving Me Is Easy lyrics

I read all the letters, I read each word that you've sent to me

And though it's past now, and the words start to fade

All the memories I have still remain

I've kept all the pictures, but I hide my feelings so no-one knows

Oh sure my friends all come round, but I'm in a crowd on my own

It's 'cos you're gone now, but your heart, still remains

And it'll be here if you come again

You see, I'd heard the rumours, I knew before you let me know

But I didn't believe it, not you,

No you would not let me go

Seems I was wrong, but I love, I love you the same

And that's the one thing that you can't take away but just remember...

If leaving me is easy,

Coming back is harder...
