Easy To Love

Sammy Davis Jr. · Other Songs - Sammy Davis Jr.

I know too well that I'm just wasting precious time

In thinking such a thing could be

That you could ever care for me

I'm sure you hate to hear



That I adore you, dear

But grant me

Just the same

I'm not entirely to blame



For love

You'd be so easy to love

So easy to idolize

All others above



So worth the yearning for

So swell to keep every home fire burning for

We'd be so grand at the game

So carefree together



That it does seem a shame

That you can't see

Your future with me

'Cause you'd be oh, so easy to love
