Easy
Philip Bailey & Phil Collins Lyrics

Easy lover
The woman in this song is an easy lover.

She'll get a hold on you believe it
She has power over men and will quickly capture your heart and mind.

Like no other
She is unique and unlike any other woman.

Before you know it you'll be on your knees
You'll be under her spell and doing everything she asks.

She's an easy lover
She is easy to love but hard to keep.

She'll take your heart but you won't feel it
She will break your heart without you even realizing it.

And I'm just trying to make you see
The singer of the song is warning the listener of the woman's true nature.

She's the kind of girl you dream of
She is the type of girl that men fantasize about.

Dream of keeping hold of
Men want to hold onto her, but it is impossible.

You'd better forget it
It's best to forget about her.

You'll never get it
You'll never win her heart.

She will play around and leave you
She will toy with your emotions and abandon you.

Leave you and deceive you
She will trick you and then disappear.

Oh you'll regret it
You will regret ever getting involved with her.

No you'll never change her, so leave it, leave it
She is unchangeable, so it's best to move on and let her be.

Get out quick 'cause seeing is believing
Leave the relationship quickly because you will see her true intentions with time.

You're the one that wants to hold her
It is the listener who desires her and longs to keep her.

Hold her and control her
He wants to possess her and take control of the relationship.

For she'll say there's no other
She will claim that there is no one else for her, but this is not true.

Till she finds another
She will always be looking for someone new to play with.

And don't try to change her, just leave it, leave it
It's pointless to try to change her, so it's best to leave her alone.

You're not the only one, ooh seeing is believing
He is not the only one who has fallen for her, and people will eventually see her true colors.

She's an easy lover (she's a easy lover)
Reiteration of her nature as an easy lover.

She'll get a hold on you believe it (get a hold on you)
Reiteration of her ability to take control over your heart and mind.

(She's) like no other
Reiteration of her uniqueness as a woman.

Before you know it you'll be on your knees (you'll be down on your knees)
Reiteration of how she can quickly bring men to submission.

She'll take your heart but you won't feel it (you won't feel it)
Reiteration of how she can break your heart without you realizing it.

And I'm just trying to make you see (trying to make you see)
Once again, the singer is attempting to warn the listener of the woman's true nature.
