LOVE COMES EASY

Lyrics and music by Winston Apple

I was waiting on tables at a roadside café
Daydreaming all through the night
That one of these days in the middle of the night shift
I’d find myself waiting on the love of my life
And all of my dreams would come true

But as the days and the weeks turned to months and to years
I could feel all my hopes giving way to my fears
And then quicker than lightning my daydreams came true
I slapped down a menu, you looked up and I knew
That you were the one for me

Love comes easy when it’s meant to be
Love comes easy now that I’ve found you
Love had never come easy for me
And then you made all my dreams come true
Now love comes easy for me, it’s so easy loving you

I was driving for dollars down a long, lonesome road
And the freight I was hauling wasn’t my heaviest load
I was carrying the weight 
Of all the loves I’ve had that went wrong
And praying I’d get it right 
The next time love came into my life

The miles that I’d traveled were wearing on me
I was footloose, but I knew that I would never be free
Until I found my true love
And darling I just couldn’t see 
Any way for that dream to come true
I had given up dreaming and then I met you
Love comes easy when it’s meant to be . . . .

By the way that you smiled at me 
And the light dancing in your eyes
I knew in an instant that you were the one 
I’d been searching for all my life
I could tell by your expression 
That you were just as surprised as me
After waiting so long and looking so hard 
To find love so easily
Love comes easy when it’s meant to be . . . .
