Nothing Comes Easy
Sons of the East Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Love come save us in the nick of time
Take my hand, we've one last chance tonight
We're burning up, blown away
Honey like a desert day
But from your hands, take a drink I might
But if we believe it, we're a hundred foot tall
Riding high, feeling low
Never seen your eyes with a darker tone
Cause in your heart there's a missing part
I swear
Wish that I could tell you why
There's light up in the evening sky
But in the cold there's the freshest breath of air
And nothing comes easy, no nothing at all
But if we believe it, we're a hundred foot tall
Nothing comes easy, so baby come on
Whatever you're feeling, we can ride on
Riding high, feeling low
Never seen your eyes with a darker tone
Take my hand, we've one last chance tonight
And nothing comes easy, no nothing at all
But if we believe it, we're a hundred foot tall
Nothing comes easy, so baby come on
Whatever you're feeling, we can ride on
We can ride on
We can ride on
