Let Me Down Easy - Exposé

So this is how you say goodbye

You said you’d always try

Our love you brushed aside

And now (now), the days are cold and gray

The feeling’s gone astray

The love that should not fade, babe

(Baby!) If you cannot come yourself,

Don’t tell nobody else

No postcards on the shelf from you

(Let me down)

CHORUS:

Let me down easy, baby

Ease the pain in me Let me down easy, honey

Why don’t you set me free?

And since the day you turned away,

The memory’s not gone away

Feels like yesterday every day

(Baby!) If you cannot come yourself,

Don’t tell nobody else

No postcards on the shelf from you

(Let me down)

CHORUS (2x)

INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE

How can you be sure

The candle won’t burn pure?

Just give me one more chance

Let me have this dance

(Let me down, let me down)

CHORUS

Let me down easy

Let me down easy, love

So this is how you say goodbye

Then, bye-bye, baby, goodbye

Don’t tell nobody else, please

No, don’t tell, don’t tell, don’t tell nobody else

If you can’t come yourself,

Why don’t you be a man about it?

If you can’t come yourself,

Then don’t send nobody else

Why don’t you be a man about it?

Won’t you be a man about it?
