Have you ever thought about how easy it could be Have you ever thought about how easy it could be Have you ever thought about how easy it could be to love 'Cause I love you I could take you by the hand as we walk into town Then by that shop we'd stop and kiss I could take you by the hand And no one would give a damn 'Cause I love you Yes I do Every now and then someone avoids to hold a hand Just because it's easier that way Every now and then someone avoids to tell the truth Just because it's easier that way And I heard about a girl who got beaten up in town Beaten up because of love And I read about a boy who was sentenced to death Because of love Have you ever thought about how easy it could be Have you ever thought about how easy it could be I could take you by the hand And no one would give a damn 'Cause I love you Yes I do
