Bright Eyes Take It Easy (love Nothing) Lyrics

Take It Easy (love Nothing) Lyrics

First with your hands and then with your mouth

A downpour of sweat, damp cotton clouds

I was a fool, you were my friend. We made it happen



You took off your clothes, left on the light

You stood there so brave. You used to be shy

Each feature improved, each movement refined 

and eyes like a showroom



Now they'e spreading out the blankets on the beach

Well,that weatherman is a liar, he said it would be raining 

but it is clear and blue as far as I can see



Left by the lamp, right next to bed, on a cartoon cat pat you scratched with a
pen, 

"Everything is as it has always been 

This never happened

Don't take it too bad, it is nothing you did

It's just once something dies you can't make it live

You're a beautiful boy

You're a sweet little kid but I am a woman." 

So I laid back down and wrapped myself up in the sheet

And I must have looked like a ghost 

'Cause something frightened me 

And since then I've been so good at vanishing



Now I do as I please and lie through my teeth

Someone might get hurt, but it won't be me 

She'll probably feel cheap, but I just feel free 

And a little bit empty

No it isn't so hard to get close to me

There will be no arguments, we will always agree

And I will try and be kind when I ask you to leave

We both take it easy



But if you stay too long inside my memory

I will trap you in a song tied to a melody 

And I will keep you there so you can't bother me
