Why Was It So Easy Lyrics - Hall & Oates

The light from your star is glowing 

Yeah, I see you in the magazine 

Your face seems older now, more knowing 

But I prefer a woman to a teenage queen 

The wine and the confusion 

It's your game and you play it so cool 

That night seems like an illusion 

In your hotel room 

German eyes, blonde disguise 

Never really knew who I was talking to 

But if you're supposed to be such a mystery 

Why was it so easy for me to be with you 

Why was it so easy for me to be with you 

Too much time has come between us 

And the sad words that I hear you say 

Must mean you don't hold me inside you 

But I guess it couldn't go any other way 

That night is so far behind us 

The words are changed and so is the tune 

I only hope that you think of me 

In a hotel room 

Oh those eyes, blonde disguise 

Never really knew who I was talking to 

But if you're supposed to be such a mystery 

Why was it so easy for me to be with you 

Why was it so easy for me to be with you
