"Easy Come, Easy Go" lyrics

Hard to know where to begin
You don't see the shape you're in
Standing tall while walking on a wire

Intentions can be hard to tell
You always seem to mean so well
Smiling as you set your house on fire

Oh, back out on the road
Rolling like a stone
One more night of keeping up the show
Going it alone
Until the curtains close
And you're back on your own
Easy come, easy go

A gentle voice, a steady hand
You learned so well how to pretend
To know just who you are and where you're going

But if you'd practiced what you preach
And listen 'stead of trying to teach
You'd realize your recklessness is showing
Yeah you'd realize your recklessness is showing

Oh back out on the road
Rolling like a stone
One more night of keeping up the show
Going it alone
Until the curtains close
And you're back on your own
Easy come, easy go
Oh oh oh oh oh
Easy come, easy go
Oh oh oh oh oh
Rolling like a stone
Oh oh oh oh oh

And you're back on your own

Winds that bring back memories
That tight rope shakes beneath your feet
Would you even feel the thrill of falling

Those empty promises you left
And broken hearts filled with regret
Wonder why you're waking up so tired?

Oh back out on the road
Rolling like a stone
One more night of keeping up the show
Going it alone
Until the curtains close
And you're back on your own
Easy come, easy go
Oh oh oh oh oh

Easy come, easy go

Intentions can be hard to tell
You always seem to mean so well
Smiling as you set your house on fire
