Let Me Down Easy
By The Chapin Brothers

It's been a while since you've passed by
I couldn't help but stop and wonder why
I guess you want to end it
Your silence seems to say
But can't we do it slowly
In a gentle sort of way

Let me down easy
Must you make me take a fall
What we've had we had together
You can leave me gently after all

Let me down easy
We still have so much to say
Lonliness has been a stranger
I'll have to learn to make my way

When you pulled the rug from under
The feet I had so firmly on the ground
Know you'll tear my world asunder
Our private star will tumble down

Let me down easy
Don't simply fall and call it a day
Let me down so very easy
Or never, never go away
