lyrics

We're all meant to learn, we're all meant to love.
We're all meant to yearn, we're all meant to make it up as we go.
We all want the pleasure, but none of us want the pain,
Of a tender surrrender-a walk down lover's lane.
But I just can't remember the night I tossed it down the drain.
'Cause I was on a bender, the bourbon boiled in my brain.

You've got to let me down easy now.
'Cause your words carry weight like a horse on plow.
With all those extra pounds that I'm draggin' around
You've got to let me down easy now.

It's all meant to bend, but often it'll break.
When did it come to pass that we stop mending what we make?
You used to make me burn, you used to make me quake.
But the weather took a turn, you left me in this frozen state.
But I just can't remember the night I tossed it down the drain.
'Cause I was on a bender, the hangover hit me like a train.

You've got to let me down easy now,
Cause your words carry weight like that northern-bound.
All those tiny towns that it drags you around...
You've got to let me down easy now.

I'll set it aside, it'll never see the light.
I'll set it aside, I'll never see you.
I'll set it aside, it'll never see the light.
I'll set it aside, I'll never see your face.
I'll set it aside, it'll never see the light.
I'll set it aside, I'll never see you.
I'll set it aside, it'll never see the light.
So if you're gonna let me down,
Yeah if you're gonna let me down,
Won't you let me down easy?
