In the course of your life
There's a side of each man
That sleeps in the darkest hour
I don't know what it takes
It takes time
It takes faith
To awake the second state of the heart
And a simple taste of love
To lift us up

It's easy enough to believe
Cause we're working on this deal for life
When your heart's held for ransom
Walk away and your spirit will fly
Bet the light that burns in your eyes
On a deal for life
Oh yeah

I never danced in a storm
I was hooked by a hunger
That left a bitter taste in my soul
There's a distance between
Hard truth and dreams
Some days it pays to run with the chances
I've got a simple tast of love to lift us up

It's easy enough to believe
Cause we're working on this deal for life
When your heart's held for ransom
Walk away and your spirit will fly
Bet the light that burns in your eyes
On a deal for life

And tennis slaves backhand never moved you
It tooks a soul all the way to pull you through
And now I won't let go
Won't let go
Oh yeah

Got a simple taste of love
To lift us up

It's easy enough to believe
Cause we're working on this deal for life
When your heart's held for ransom
Walk away and your spirit will fly

Cause it's easy enough to believe
On a deal for life
When your heart's held for ransom
Walk away and your spirit will fly
Bet the light that burns in your eyes
On a deal for life
Oh yeah

It's easy baby
Oh
It's easy
It's easy to believe
On a deal for life
