Oleta Adams - Easier to say goodbye

We need a love revival,
somewhere for us to begin
to take apart the wounded hearts
and love them back together again.

Solemn promises are
too quickly spoken.
That tie that binds the hearts
is easily broken.
It hurts to leave and
yet it hurts to live a lie.
It's easier to say goodbye.

I just want to make it better
it's easier to say goodbye.
I just want to mend a heart,
it's easier to say goodbye.

Men and women lack
the courage of commitment.
All their energies
and passions are misspent.
Will we ever understand
the reason why
it's easier to say goodbye.

I just want to make it better
(I wanna try to make it better,
gotta try to stay together,
we've gotta find the reasons why)
it's easier to say goodbye.
