Let Me Down Easy - Hugh Cornwell

Let me down easy, let me down easy

Let me down easy, let me down easy

When I rest my weary head after all the words are said

When my eyelids close with the weight of a hundred years

Please let me down easy, let me down easy

My boat can slip away into a calmer sea, let me down easy

I know there’ll be nothing to fear

Let me down easy, let me down easy

Let me down easy, let me down easy

My body slips away out into weightlessness, let me down easy

Now I know that there’s nothing to fear

Let me down easy, let me down easy

Let me down easy, let me down easy

When I rest my aching heart, after it’s been torn apart

When my tears have flowed on the tide of a hundred seas

Please let me down easy, let me down easy

Affection slips away into my memory, let me down easy

There’s a better time waiting for me

Let me down easy, let me down easy

Let me down easy, let me down easy
