I don't like things that come to me too easily
Whether it's words to my songs or an epiphany
I like me a solid chase and a little bit of energy
Maybe some chaos even for a while
Have me on edge and I'll take that, and I'll take that
Easy come, easy go
Wasn't it just meant to go?
You stole right in and out the door
What was I thinking? I don't know
Easy come, easy go
And that's just how it goes
Easy come
Easy come
Easy go
I like things I can keep safe with me
Like the record store down on Newbury Street
And I like my cassettes in stacks of three
Maybe it won't sing after a while
Just a friend I'll be keeping around
I'll hold on to that
But I'll keep on
And I'm not gonna keep on


Easy come, easy go
Wasn't it just meant to go?
You stole right in and out the door
What was I thinking? I don't know
Easy come, easy go
And that's just how it goes
Easy come, easy go


Ain't that just how it goes
And easy go, easy come and easy go, easy come and easy.
