By day we work it all out
By night its tangles again
Is this a punishment
Or just the way that love is
Its easy to be your lover
Its so hard being your man
But I would never let another
Be the man that you demand
There was a time I never worried
How long a love could last
How much the night would allow
How fast our days do past
But morning forces us to dress
Go out and work some kind of job
When all I want to do is rest
In your arms
Its easy to be your lover
Its so hard being your man
I could never let another
Be the man that you demand
You said I cannot stray if I pretend to love
And that you will not stay if I break my promise
Come on, break your promise, we can let the light die
Bite into the fruit you where forbidden to try
Its easy to be your lover
Its so hard being your man
But I could never let another
Be the man you condemn.
