Easy As Life - Tina Turner (蒂娜·特纳)/Angelique Kidjo

This is the moment when the gods expect me

To beg for help but I won't even try

I want nothing in the world

But myself to protect me

But I won't lie down roll over and die

All I have to do

Is to forget how much I love him

All I have to do

Is put my longing to one side

Tell myself that love's an ever-changing situation

Passion would have cooled

And all the magic would have died

It's easy it's easy

Until I think about him

As he was when I last saw him

And how he would have been

Were I to be with him today

Tender in his manner and my self-consolation

All I ever wanted and I'm throwing it away

It's easy It's easy as life

All I have to do

Is to pretend I never knew him

On those very rare occasions

When he steals into my heart

Better to have lost him

When the ties were barely binding

Better the contempt of the familiar can not start

It's easy it's easy

And though I'll think about him

Until the earth draws in around me

And though I choose to leave him

For another kind of love

This is no denial no betrayal but redemption

Redeemed in my own eyes and in the pantheon above

It's easy it's easy it's easy as life
