There's No Easy Wayby James Ingramalbum: Power Of Great Music (1991) I held her close to me'Cause I know she breaks so easilyAnd then I told herBut I knew no matter how I tried to console herShe'd just do the best she couldBut there are times the best is no damn goodAnd no matter how you try to be kindThere's always still a part of you you leave behindWhen it falls apartChorus: There's no easy way to break somebody's heartI lied and told her she'd be fineThough we both knew it was just a lineI had to do it'Cause I'd a' said anything to help me get through itThen she reached out for my hand And her simple touch was more than I could standAnd I had to turn away'Cause I knew all the hurt That she was feeling I was feeling too'Cause when it falls apartChorus:There's no easy way to break somebody's heartShe could've gotten angryAnd made me feel like a guilty childBut I realized that never was her styleI wanted her to hurt meAnd not treat me like a friendI wanted her to say there'd be somedayI'm come crawling on my knees to ask her back againBut she acted like a lady 'til the endOh, what a ladyI thought that she'd break downBut she smiled at me and never made a soundAnd I guess she understood in her wayCause her silence told me everything she could not sayWhen it falls apartThere's just no easy wayChorus: There's just no easy wayThere's just no easy way to break somebody's heart.
