Not Easy to Do

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I don't see no bumper stickers Braggin' for the honor students That went to my high school anymore I'm not tryin' to remember Where I knew that bartender Maybe my women's studies class in college I don't know which direction To avoid this construction Unfamiliar roads are keepin' me humble [Chorus] I just needed something new Needed a different view Needed to stretch my arms Just needed to listen to my heart 'Cause it's not easy to do [Verse 2] All these fish seem to be swimmin' Caught up in the same dirеction There's questions for thе ones who changed their course We've all got our motivator Some of those look good on paper Others gone and made the neighbors' gossip [Chorus] Just needed something new Needed a different view Needed to stretch my arms Just needed to listen to my heart 'Cause it's not easy to do [Bridge] Well, they've talked in their general statements About how you can do anything You decide to set your mind to But when you finally do They don't seem to get it All they do is ask Questions 'bout the budget They seem a little scared The ones unprepared Ready to jump off the cliff To see what happens 'Cause it's not easy to do [Verse 3] Somewhere in your sleepin' quarters Purple velvet blackout curtains A ceiling full of stars And all of our mad dreams The universe's wrappin' presents Random order, sendin' out our blessings Givin' back to the kids who ate their soap [Chorus] Just needed something new Needed a different view Needed to stretch their arms Just needed to listen to their heart Just needed something new Needed a different view Needed to stretch my arms Just needed to listen to my heart And that's not easy to do
