nobody has it easy - never said you did
just trying to remind you of when you was a kid
it was so simple, your heart was pure
no matter what it was, a smile was the cure
sunlight turned into the dark
you’d turn to go home but you had to stop
and think back on the one you love
and know you were the one they were thinkin’ of
holding onto hands - playing kissing games
waiting for trains to take you away
you could walk with each other for so many days
and talk about it all - nothing in the way
it got so complicated over the years
life got so filled up with all of your fears
but there was a time - before the tears
all you needed was the sun
love makes you go mad, sooner or later
but how could you regret the time you gave her
at the start - you couldn’t wait to date her
absolutely perfect in your mind you made her
when you were falling - felt like nothing could save ya
you stumbled upon this gift that god gave ya
it’s like everything fell into place
and you went to heaven when you saw her face
feelings are strong, and they’re carrying on
to every lover in the world singing a song
i know the pain, just let it wash away
even if you’re alone - you’ll be okay
and if you got somebody, hold ‘em close
don’t be embarrassed - because nobody knows
look in each other’s eyes, and raise a toast
to the beautiful people - you’re the most
