It s never that easy/i ve been here before
Closer than ever (musical)You just met him, yes, i know
This is lasting, this will grow
But oh, it's never that easy
Believe me, it isn't at all
You are starstruck, so was i
I would love him, till i die
But oh, it's never that easy
My darling, not easy at all
All your life you'll be with him
Think of that, think it through
He may chase some crazy whim
When he does, you'll go too
And you'll lose him now and then
But each morning start again
And oh, some days you'll be happy
But it won't be easy
It's never that easy
You think so, but no
Oh no, i know
It isn't at all.
Woman 2
The man says things he needs to say
Turns to smile as he stands at my door
And then i see his eyes are grey
Oh god i've been here before
To want him makes no sense at all
Then we talk and out his feelings pour
Inside all my defences fall
Oh yes i've been here before
The man's all wrong
That's all that's true
And what is worse
This time good god he's twenty-two
And since it's wrong, before we start
Why should i rush to prove that i can break my heart all over?
The man leaves and i'm on my own
I sit here and simply watch the door
And tell myself i'm fine alone
Oh yes, i've been here before
Oh yes, i've been here before
Woman 2 woman 1
The man's all wrong but oh
That's all that's true it's never that easy
And what is worse believe me
This time, good god,
He's twenty-two it isn't at all
And since it's wrong he may chase
Before we start some crazy whim
Why should i rush let him go
To prove or he'll
That i can break my heart all over break your heart
The man leaves and i'm on my own i'm fine alone without him
I sit here and simply watch the door and you'll miss him now and then
Then tell myself i'm fine alone i'm fine alone
Oh yes i've been here before oh yes i've been here before
But it won't be easy
Some days you'll be happy
No never that easy
But it won't be easy
You think so but no
Oh, no
Both
I know
I've been here before
