You want someone who wants you for who you are

I want someone to try and let me down easy, easy tonight

Easy, easy tonigh

Honey, it′s no secret that with matters of the heart

I'm reserved, I′m irrational and rarely ever start

Since the world's dark and often inhumane

We relish our condition, come drinking in the rain

'Cause you remember when, after Paris

We all decided the best way to fight it was

Drink wine, dance, heal and pray

And make love that lasts with a vengeance

So you can join the cowards all aboard the outrage train

You can stay afraid, or slit the throat of fear and be brave

And scratch a little itch ′til you′re moving like a motherfucker

Up in this bitch

You wanted to fight for a cause?

Then go out and fall in love

Don't stop, don′t stop believing

In truth, in grace, and in grieving

You want someone to want you for who you are

I want someone to try and let me down easy, easy tonight

Easy, easy tonight

So leave me and tell me what I already know

That I trialled and I failed and it's good to let it go

Sometimes life sucks, everything is lame

Not everything′s as easy as making lemonade

And so dismembering our state of balance

With lust requited, a gaze undivided

With a cool mind, warmth in your face

A good heart, grace under pressure

Give me a good reason to be heartsick again

To be here, to be strong, to be oddly and boldly estranged

From a loss of better years

I found myself descending into tedium and fear

You wanted to fight for a cause?

Then go out and fall in love

Don't stop, don′t stop believing

In truth, grace, and the grieving

You want someone to want you for who you are

I want someone to try and let me down easy, easy tonight

Easy, easy tonight

If it's late, you're drunk, and you want

A reason, some reason to live

I always, I always say

Just put on some Whitesnake

Honey, it′s no secret that I′ve been losing my way

In the weirdest of moments and the stupidest of ways

But hey, I'm still young, it′s gonna be okay

I got solipsism, baby, and I brought lemonade

I'll surrender then, all my balance

And be excited and drink to tonight

It′s not a bad time, time spent with you

There's cool lights, there′s songs with good lyrics

We never have to talk again, whatever, up to you

But since you're putting up with me

Here's another toast just to you

Let′s dance off the beat

Then mosey out together and take a bow on the street

You wanted to fight for a cause?

Then go out and love someone

Don′t stop, don't stop believing

In truth, personal feeling

I want someone to want me for who I am

I want someone to try and let me down easy, easy tonight

Easy, easy tonight

Easy, easy tonight

Easy, easy tonight

Easy, easy tonight

Easy, easy tonight

Easy, easy tonight
