Was is easy for you to say that you loved me, and then walk away,
Leaving me here in a flood tears with a broken life?
Is it easy to take a vow, make a promise and then run around
On your husband when you have sworn right before God’s eyes?
But I would rather take this pain than to be without you one more day
And I would do most anything just to have you back with me again
It wasn’t easy to swallow all my pride, to bring you back to be my bride
From the chains of the life you chose instead of me
It wasn’t easy to bear the shame, to pay your price, to give my name
To a heart that doesn’t want to be free
(CHORUS)
It wasn’t easy to give my life, to buy you back to be my wife,
But love’s not easy…
