Loving Her Was Easier (Than Anything I'll Ever Do Again)

(Kris Kristofferson)



I have seen the morning burnin' golden

On the mountain in the sky

Achin' with the feeling of the freedom

Of an eagle when she flies.



Turnin' on the world the way she smiled

Upon my soul as I lay dying

Healin' as the colors in the sunshine

Was the shadows in her eyes.



Wakin' in the morning to the feeling

Of her fingers on my skin

Wipin' out the traces of the people

And the places that I've been.



Teaching me that yesterday was something

That I never thought of trying

Talkin' of tomorrow and the money

Love and time we had to spend.



Lovin' her was easier thank anything

I'll ever do again

Coming close together with a feeling

That I've never known before in my time.



She ain't ashamed to be a woman

Or afraid to be a friend

I don't know the answer to the easy way

She opened every door in my mind.



But dreamin' was as easy as believing

It was never gonna end

And lovin' her was easier

Than anything I'll ever do again...
