Easy to Think

Too young to understand why she went away
Too old to admit that I wouldn’t be okay
So I hardened my heart that day
I wiped the feelings off my face
She said it was her and it wasn’t my fault; it wasn’t my fault
But when somebody leaves, like they all do, it’s easy to think that it might be
you
When somebody leaves, like they all do, it ain’t easy
His eyes told me we were through and he’d be okay
I just looked down as my true love walked away
And it hardened my heart that day, but I wiped the feelings off my face
He said it was him and it wasn’t my fault, it wasn’t my fault
But when somebody leaves, like they all do, it’s easy to think that it might be
you
When somebody leaves, like they all do, it ain’t easy
But I will stay strong, and I will stay busy, and I won’t lean too much to your
side
And in July we’ll call this freedom
And one day this sheen that covers my eyes, it will melt away; it’ll fall,
drip down by the wayside
I just need time
This town was feeling so small and I needed space
So I packed my things in my blue suitcase, and I drove away
But it hardened my heart that day, when he wiped his feelings off his face
'cause he thought it was him, but it wasn’t his fault, no, it was just me
But when somebody leaves, like we all do, it’s so easy to think that it’s you
When somebody leaves, like we all do, it ain’t easy
