Easy Does It - Bonnie "Prince" Billy

When there’s only one thing I can do

Well you know that I still don’t want to do it

And where there’s just one way to get through

Sometimes I still don’t want to go through with it

There are other ways I used to think

To find my way around

The wood, and the caves, and the bad women’s ways

That were always to be found

And I have done enough right

Dirt and wrong can now both stir my mind

And love I can find it again

In someone sitting close in the flashes of sin

There are other ways I used to think

To find my way around

The wood, and the smell, and the word of farewell

That I always had to sound

Now there is just one way

To stretch out my arms and cry

To that just one day

Number the friends and the family

That love me

Welcome the ring of the moonlight

Above me

And I wander and lay in whatever in old bed

With good earthly music singing into my head

Well there’s a path

There’s a beach

There’s a horseshoe crab

There’s my brothers and my girlfriends

My mom and my dad

And there’s me

And that’s all that needs to be

Now there is just one way

To stretch out my arms and cry

To that just one day

Number the friends and the family

That love me

Welcome the ring of the moonlight

Above me

And I wander and lay in whatever in old bed

With good earthly music singing into my head

Oh, oh, oh, oh
