It's Never Quite As Easy As That (Tribute to Patsy Cline) (Alt. Version) Lyrics

When we met for the first time I knew

I'd lose my heart in no time flat

I hoped we'd walk on hand in hand forever

But it's never quite as easy as that

I started seeing those storm clouds inside you

Almost right off of the bat

I hoped my love might tame them someday

But it's never quite as easy as that

I thought when you asked for what you wanted from me

It was just right where I was at

I believed love would lift us up all of the time

But it's never quite as easy as that

After all your promises you left,

I just talk to a ghost where you sat

I'd like to think I'm over you and I'll be fine

But it's never quite as easy as that

I'm not the first gal to try to get a man off her mind

So at least she's back to standing pat

I'll try to convince myself I'm better off without you

But it's never quite as easy as that
