Easy Come, easy go
That’s the way
If love must have it’s day
Then easy come
Let it go
No remorse
No regret
We should part
Exactly as we met
Just easy come
Easy go
We never dreamt of romantic dangers
But now that it ends
Let’s be friends
And not two strangers
Easy come, easy go
Here we are
So darling au revoir
It’s easy come easy go
