Chorus 1:

I thought love was over-rated,
Highly complicated, too;
What's this dream that you've created?
You make it easy to be true.
Day by day, I'm growing fonder
Of the tender things you do;
I would be a fool to wander,
You make it easy to be true.
Though other lips and other eyes
May sometimes try to lure me,
No other lips, no other eyes
Can give the things that you assure me.
Can't you think of something spiteful?
Something mean that you could do?
Must you be so darn delightful?
You make it easy to be true.

Chorus 2:

Don't stop saying what you're saying,
Just keep talking like you do;
When you're saying what you're saying,
You make it easy to be true.
Once I looked in all directions,
Then I took a look at you;
Now I've severed all connections,
You make it easy to be true.
I think you're smart, I think you're wise,
I think you're cute and clever;
I like your lips, I like your eyes,
Look out, or I'll go on forever.
I was always quite evasive,
Then you changed my point of view;
'Cause your charms are so persuasive,
You make it easy to be true.
