[Verse]
Let me down ea
sy, let me dow
n easy
Let me down ea
sy, let me dow
n easy
When I rest my
weary head af
ter all the wo
rds are said
When my eyelid
s close with t
he weight of a
hundred years
Please let me
down easy, let
me down easy
My boat can sl
ip away into a
calmer sea, l
et me down eas
y
I know there'l
l be nothing t
o fear
Let me down ea
sy, let me dow
n easy
Let me down ea
sy, let me dow
n easy
My body slips
away out into
weightlessness
, let me down
easy
Now I know tha
t there's noth
ing to fear
keyboard solo:
Let me down ea
sy, let me dow
n easy
Let me down ea
sy, let me dow
n easy
When I rest my
aching heart,
after it's be
en torn apart
When my tears
have flowed on
the tide of a
hundred seas
Please let me
down easy, let
me down easy
Affection slip
s away into my
memory, let m
e down easy
There's a bett
er time waitin
g for me
Let me down ea
sy, let me dow
n easy
Let me down ea
sy, let me dow
n easy
