(Written by Shelby Lynne and Bill Botrell) I always thought is would be easier After you were gone Thought I could pull myself together And do fine on my my own Sometimes I do alright then I remember How I dreamed it, how I needed it I thought it would be easier I thought it would be easier They never told me I'd be lonely, Torn up and wasted But when you saw something Else you liked You couldn't wait to taste it How was I to know about the way You were scheming I guess I must have been dreaming I thought it would be easier I thought it would be easier I found that old shirt you used to wear And it really brought me down Ooh does she like blue like I do I bet she gets around All I know today is that I, I can't stand it This ain't how I planned it I thought it would be easier I thought it would be easier
