Words are never easy Words are seldom true Words are never simple darling When they're aimed at you
Words are never gentle Words are never plain Words are never what they think they are That's the problem with pain
Words are never my own Try well as they might They break me into pieces, darling From the greatest of heights
I left you in the morning When the tears stained my smile I left you in the morning, darling For a long, long while
Oh and I think life would be so much easier if they had no words Yeah, I think life would be so much easier if they had no words I'd smile at you when I was happy, shed a tear when I was sad I think life would be so much easier if I was half the drunken man
Don't blame it on me Oh, blame it on the words Don't blame it on me Oh, blame it on the words
Blame it on the words Blame it on the words Blame it on the words
