It's easy to love when I love someone like you It's easy to feel when you feel the way I do You know love don't come easy and love don't come fast But when love comes to you, you gotta make it last On the day that I met you I knew it could be So easy for you and so easy for me It's easy to love when I love someone like you, babe It's easy to feel when you feel the way I do, babe Like the stars in the night seem to shine from above But that's the way that you shine when you give me your love And your love satisfies me like a natural high From the sole of my feet to the top of the sky It's easy to love when I love someone like you It's easy to feel when you feel the way I do You know love don't come easy and love don't come fast But when love comes to you, you gotta make it last On the day that I met you I knew it could be So easy for you and so easy for me It's easy to love when I love someone like you, babe Oh and I do, babe It's easy to feel when you feel the way I do, babe Oh and I do, babe It's easy to love when I love someone like you, babe It's easy to love It's easy to love
