Lovin' You Is Easier

[Verse 1]
I heard you turn your key in the front door,
And then I heard your bare feet on the floor.
Smelled your perfume when you came in the room,
The same damn scent I bought you back in June.
You came to bed and never met my eyes,
And then I listened to your heavy sighs.
I almost asked you where you’d been tonight,
But let it go, 'cause I don't wanna fight.

[Chorus]
You say you love me, and I hope that's true,
But I can tell he still holds part of you.
You’re here with me, but not the way you were,
I think it's real, but sometimes I'm not sure.
I know there’s things you think I never see,
But I can't show you how much this hurts me.
I let it slide, don’t ask you what I know,
’Cause lovin’ you is easier than lettin’ go.

[Verse 2]
Your phone lights up, you lay it facin' down,
Then turn it off without a single sound.
There's more than darkness between you and me,
Like somethin’s there you don’t want me to see.
I start to ask if it was who I thought,
But then decided that I better not.
If I say it out loud, it all gets real,
And I can't face how that would make me feel.

[Bridge]
I tell myself it’s just a phase you’re in,
That you’ll come back and choose me in the end,
But deep inside I feel it ain’t that way,
And I don’t have the strength to walk away.

[Outro]
