Tom Paxton - It Ain't Easy lyrics

Everywhere I looked this morning You were on my mind Sometimes we have moments When good news is hard to find No one knows exactly What another's going through But singing you these simple words ls one thing I can do Though it ain't easy It ain't easy The living and the loving Are no easy things to do It ain't easy It ain't easy And that's why I want to be a friend For you I know you lost something That you loved with all your heart I know how the grieving Feels like tearing you apart Just remember something That might ease you through the pain There are those who'll carry you Until you're whole again Though it ain't easy It ain't easy The living and the loving Are no easy things to do It ain't easy It ain't easy That's why I wanna be a friend For you Only you can understand The load you have to bear All a friend can offer Is to try to take a share Friends are all we have And I just want to help you see However hard it gets for you You have that friend in me Though it ain't easy Though it ain't easy The living and the loving Are no easy things to do It ain't easy It ain't easy That's why I wanna be a friend For you That's why I wanna be a friend For you
