All at once I had the means to match my ample time
It almost makes me sad, it happened because someone died
I'd been waiting for years to say
I'm sorry to hear and yeah, he was a great man

But I like to think that I at least in some small way
Make him happy as I live my endless holiday
Doing things that he worked too hard to ever do
He would have wanted it this way

But who really knows
You know what they say, easy come, easy go
You know it doesn't make a difference in the long run
Difference in the long run

Easy come, easy go
You know it doesn't make a difference in the long run
Difference in the long run

I remember the last time I ever saw his face
I would see him once a year around the holidays
Little gifts under trees were never quite like this

I'd say I put my time in
I remember where I was when I first heard
Bittersweet bad news is the best
I quit my job for the wake and never came back

Easy come, easy go
You know it doesn't make a difference in the long run
Difference in the long run

Easy come, easy go
You know it doesn't make a difference in the long run
Difference in the long run

Easy come, easy go
You know it doesn't make a difference in the long run
Difference in the long run

Easy come, easy go
You know it doesn't make a difference in the long run
Difference in the long run
