Easier - Glen Phillips

I was 18, so were you

And I was that Birkenstock, geek rock dude

You were a backflip, doe-eyed, tree-climbin'

Earth mama, beautiful evergreen girl

And I never thought that I could be

Getting my gray hair with you beside me

And there’s something I’m blind to

But you still see

And it couldn’t be better, I know

It shouldn’t be easier, whoa, oh

I should just stop waiting for the other boot to fall

I want to be the toy in your cereal box

I want to be Carter at your peace talks

I want to get almost too familiar

But still notice the way that you walk

And if you said you were going away

I’d run on the tarmac

And I would lay down in front of the plane

Just to get you to stay

This couldn’t be better, I know

It shouldn’t be easier, whoa, oh

I should just stop waiting for the other boot to fall

Got everything I’ve ever wanted here

Everything and damn this constant fear

Sure I’m gonna lose it all

Just waiting for the other boot to fall

And if you thought I could be replaced

I wouldn’t just stop with an ear

I would cut off my whole freakin' face

Just to make my point clear

That it couldn’t be better, I know

It shouldn’t be easier, oh, whoa

I should just stop waiting for the other boot to fall

I’m waiting for the other boot to fall
