Easy Come Easy Go
Kip Winger Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you start to feel like there's no time to waste, baby try to let go
There's nothin' that strong, can't break your heart, easy come easy go

And the only only only way to find it

Is if you're not diggin' too deep, though it's easier said than done
You've got to feel it in your blood, play the game like you've already won
And you'll only only only own it when you say

Easy come easy go, this won't break my heart, don't ya know
Sometimes high, sometimes low, easy come easy go

You fell in a trap that won't let you win, you try again and again
You let the heat burn your feet, baby try to understand

That you'll only only only own it when you say

Easy come easy go, this won't break my heart, don't ya know
Sometimes high, sometimes low, easy come easy go

So if you start to feel like there's no time to waste, baby try to let go
There's nothin' so strong, can't break your heart
Sometimes high, sometimes low

And you'll only only only own it when you say

Easy come easy go, this won't break my heart, don't ya know
Sometimes high, sometimes low, easy come easy go

Sometimes high, sometimes low, easy come easy go





(Easy come easy go) If you're not diggin' too deep
Easy come, easy go (easy come easy go)

Winger is for sure the most underated Metal band ever, the musicianship in their band is unsurpassed, Reb is a legond and Kip is one of the best vocalists ever!

@vipuls4428

Only wish we could have the 80's rock back! 80's rocked man!

@ToyGunnTube

A lot of people "joked" on Winger back in the day, but if you ever see them live you would understand how really good this band is.

@xxFortunadoxx

You can say what you want about their music, many people would find it incredibly cheesy. But hell. The technical proficency in their songs is amazing. They honestly are astounding musicians.

@GC0077

Reb Beach was/is one damn awesome guitarist...n his guitars were bad ass!

@24SweetThing

It doesnt get any better than this. Extremely sexy singer with a very talented band. Reb can play the hell out of a guitar. Winger is just the total package. Eye candy with great music. WINGER ROCKS

@ersan1970

This song is absolute definition of uplifting, hi energy rock.

@Ch4grin

Reb Beach never got the respect he deserved.

@JackieKixx

Forever Winger, really love this band!! ROCK ON FOREVER!!!

@bwilk2001

It may seem a tad cheesy, but, this song and all the other hair or glam bands always kept it upbeat, you can't help but be in a good mood listening to this. Most of the newer alternative and whatever is out now is almost depressing, and i'm 26, when all this hair and glam was out i was between being a toddler and being in elementary school. 80's all the way!!!!
