Easy Living
Leo Robin & Ralph Rainger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It′s easy to live when you're in love
And I′m so in love
There's nothing in life but you
I never regret the years that I'm giving
They′re easy to give when you′re in love
I'm happy to do, whatever I do for you
For you, maybe I′m a fool, but it's fun
Darling, it′s grand, they just don't understand
Living for you is easy living
It′s easy to live when you're in love
And I'm so in love
There′s nothing in life but you
