Dancin' Moon Songcast Ep. 06 Easy Come

Featured song from 2010's Letting the Sunlight Back In LP 

Easy Come

Easy come, yeah, easy go
what you thought, well it just ain’t so
you can plan all your hours and days
but they’re all just gonna happen anyway, yeah
they’re all just gonna happen anyway.

Well I knew a man up to his eyes in stock
he was always buying low and selling on the top
then a fat-fingered clerk hit the wrong key
and all his numbers floated off into a bottomless sea

(chorus)

Now I saw a girl, she was hungry for love
and the lover she was with fit her just like a glove
but the winter ended and the ice was freed
and they both floated off like the cottonwood seed.

(chorus)

Now there was a country that would go to war
it was an eye for an eye—they had to even the score
every flash of a drone or explosive device
killed an enemy once and made an enemy twice.

(chorus)

Now there was a people and they were so smart--
they tried to build them a Heaven tearing the world apart
but when they opened the gates their faces all fell,
there was not much left but a customized Hell.

Easy come, yeah, easy go
what you thought, well it just ain’t so
you can plan all your hours and days
but if you’re not giving Love it’s gonna suck anyway
Not giving love, not giving love, not giving love it’s gonna suck anyway
you can plan all your hours and days
but if you’re not giving Love it’s gonna suck anyway
if you’re not giving love.
