[Verse 1]
Caravan's lost
To sun and the dust
No-one loves you
When you are lost
Yeah I'm a clown
Pulling my world down
I believed I was strong
But you are the stone

[Chorus 1]
And when it comes
You'll feel the weight of it
The weight of it
The day will come
And you'll get away from it
Away from it

[Chorus 2]
Sometimes everything is easy
Sometimes everything is easy
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la

[Verse 2]
I try to quit
But my heart won't buy it
I got family
The caravan comes back for me

[Chorus 1]
And when it comes
You'll feel the weight of it
The weight of it
And the day will come
And you'll get away from it
Away from it

[Chorus 2]
Sometimes everything is easy
Sometimes everything is easy
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la

Blur

British rock group Blur formed in 1988 and began life as a fairly unsuccessful shoegaze/madchester outfit, but the band quickly developed into becoming one of the leaders of the massive 1990s Britpop scene.

Their rivalry with contemporaries Oasis culminated in one of the most famous chart battles in British history – one which Blur won when “Country House” outsold Oasis’s “Roll With It” by 50,000 copies, giving Blur their first #1 single in the process.

Following this, the group embarked on a new musical direction, deliberately heading away from their trademark Britpop sound and instead taking influences from American alternative rock, a sound which earned them new fans in the US and gave them their second UK #1: “Beetlebum” in 1997.
