Easy to Change
On a rusty downtown rooftop
As the empty city grays
I have memorized horizon lights
Out of reach to rearrange
While the twilight fills with new stars
And the night birds break away
Don't the sky
Make it look easy to change
Chorus:
Easy to change
Easy to change
I wish it was
Easy to change
So angels beget angels
Dream about regret
While the jilted street sends roses
For the gypsy Juliet
Who sang "Fortune if you love me
"Make it in that real glad way
"'Cause don't the sky
Make it look easy to change?"
Chorus:
Easy to change
Easy to change
Any time you want to
You just start all over again
Easy to change
Easy to change
I wish it was
Easy to change
Well I wrote this song to please you
With my heart's own filigree
'Cause in your needing hour
It was what you asked of me
But now at your yellow window
I am standin' in the rain
You won't even speak my name
I can see your heart so plain
Such ordinary pain
And just smile as you are sayin'
"Don't the sky make it look easy to change?"
Chorus:
Easy to change
Easy to change
Any time you want to
You just start all over again
Easy to change
Easy to change
I wish it was
Easy to change
