It Ain’t Easy Lyrics by Robert Forster

The Evangelist

2008

And a river ran, and a train ran
And a dream ran through everything that he did
There was melody, there was harmony
There was sweet Sherrie, but it was melody he loved most of all
And an ice cube in a quiet room melts through an afternoon
32 in the shade
And a books talks and a magazine speaks
And a window breaks and a movie was in his head

And it ain't easy
It ain't easy when that love is blue, the love is blue
And it ain't easy
It ain't easy when that love is blue, the love is blue

It was a head trip, it was a friendship
He picked me up when I might have slipped, not done a thing
A sly grin that played to win
We will not see his kind again anymore

And it ain't easy
It ain't easy when that love is blue, the love is blue
It ain't easy
It ain't easy when that love is blue, the love is blue

I write these words to his tune
That he wrote on a full moon
And a river ran and a train ran
And a dream ran through everything that he did

And it ain't easy
It ain't easy when that love is blue, that love is blue
And it ain't easy
It ain't easy when that love is blue, the love is blue

But it ain't easy
It ain't easy when that love is blue, love is blue
And it ain't easy
It ain't easy when that love is blue, the love is blue

Love is blue, hey
