(Carly Simon/Jacob Brackman)
|
I remember a time, rompin' through the woods
|
Sun against our skin instead of clothes
|
When we felt hungry we would eat, whn we felt glad we would dance
|
And whenever we felt drowsy we would doze
|
|
It was so easy then never takin' any stands
|
It was so easy then, holdin' hands
|
|
I remember a time when our fears could be named
|
And courage meant not refusing dares
|
I remember when we took such cares to step never on the cracks,
|
No only on the squares
|
Or else we'd be abducted by the bears
|
|
It was so easy then never makin' any plans
|
It was so easy then, holdin' hands
|
It was so easy then never makin' any plans
|
It was so easy then, holdin' hands
|
|
And now we are grown, with debts and regrets
|
And broken hearts and sentimental schemes
|
Now every tender failure seems to overthrow old dreams
|
Love can lead a normal woman to extremes
|
|
It was so easy once, holdin' hands without a plan
|
It was so easy once holdin' hands
|
Just holdin' hands
|

It Was So Easy
