It's Easy Talking, Easy Walking with You

We've had our shouts and share of aches
But inch by inch and side by side,
We learned to bend before it breaks,
To give a little, then a lot besides.

It’s easy talking, easy walking with you.
Like slippin' n sliding through the morning dew.
No need to run, no need to hide,
Just slow dancin', down by the riverside.
Every laugh, and every smile,
    it feels like it's brand new.
It’s easy talking, easy walking with you.

We’ve been through storms and icy sleet,
Chased our dreams down crowded streets.
But when the going gets tough, and fires blaze.
The quiet song we share together, clears the haze.

It's clear we've found a way to get along.
You’d pull too fast, I’d hold on too tight,
We’d dream by day, and clash at night.
Until we learned, to pull the parachute 
   cord, at just the right time.

It’s easy talking, easy walking with you.
Like slippin' n sliding through the morning dew.
No need to run, no need to hide,
Just slow dancin', down by the riverside.
Every laugh, and every smile,
    it feels like it's brand new.
It’s easy talking, easy walking with you.

It’s not in smiles we shared when all is right,
Not in the doubts we raised out of sight.
Not in tempers that flare when hope runs low.
But in the yielding yen-tide, that love learns to grow.

It’s easy talking, easy walking with you.
Like slippin' n sliding through the morning dew.
No need to run, no need to hide,
Just slow dancin', down by the riverside.
Every laugh, and every smile,
    it feels like it's brand new.
It’s easy talking, easy walking with you.
