lyrics

Squint through the smoke at the blank page before you
And uncap your favorite pen
Last year's attempt gathers dust in a box but
A new year is here once again

It might not be easy
Who said it was easy

Early in springtime you drive to the heartland
And take on the name of a saint
Each day alone with the voice of your conscience
And each move you make preordained

It might not be easy
Who said it was easy

Don't give up on it now, don't give up on it now, don't give up on it now
Stay a while with it now, stay a while with it now, stay a while with it now

Summer comes swiftly and soon you are drifting
Away into someone's embrace
Promise her all of the things you can't give her
All wrapped up in diamonds and lace

It's supposed to be easy
Why isn't it easy

One autumn later you're faced with a tiny pink
Bundle of noises and tears
Each sound it makes is a painful reminder of
All of your thrown-away years

It's supposed to be easy
Why isn't it easy

Don't give up on it now, don't give up on it now, don't give up on it now
Stay a while with it now, stay a while with it now, stay a while with it now

Ah...

Turn back the pages and search for the answer
When nobody else is awake
How many vows can you make in a lifetime
And how many more can you break
