Easier

I was eighteen, so were you



And I was that Birkenstock, geek rock dude



You were a backflip, doe eyed, tree climbing



Earth mama beautiful evergreen girl



And I never thought that I could be



Getting my gray hairs with you beside me



And there's something I'm blind to but you still see



And it couldn't be better I know



It shouldn't be easier, ooh



I should just stop waiting for the other boot to fall



I want to be the toy in your cereal box



I want to be Carter at your peace talks



I want to get almost too familiar



But still notice the way that you walk



And if you said you were going away



I'd run on the tarmac



And I would lay down in front of the plane



Just to get you to stay



This couldn't be better I know



It shouldn't be easier, ooh



I should just stop waiting for the other boot to fall



Got everything I've ever wanted here



Everything and damn this constant fear



Sure I'm gonna lose it all



Just waiting for the other boot to fall



And if you thought I could be replaced



I wouldn't just stop with an ear



I would cut of my whole freaking face



Just to make my point clear



That it couldn't be better I know



It shouldn't be easier, ooh



I should just stop waiting for the other boot to fall



I'm waiting for the other boot to fall
