I have seen the morning burning golden 
on the mountain in the skies
Achin' with the feelin' of the freedom 
of an eagle when he flies
Turnin' on the world the way he smiled 
upon my soul as I lay dying
Healin' as the colors in the sunshine 
and the shadows of his eyes

Wakin' in the mornin' to the feelin' 
of his fingers on my skin
Wipin' out the traces of the people 
and the places that I've been
Teachin' me that yesterday was something 
that I never thought of trying
Talkin' of tomorrow and the money, 
love and time we had to spend

Lovin' him was easier 
than anything I'll ever do again

Comin' close together with a feelin' 
that I've never known before in my time
He ain't ashamed to be a man 
or afraid to be a friend
I don't know the answer to the easy way 
he opened every door in my mind
But dreamin' was as easy as believin' 
it was never gonna end

And lovin' him was easier 
than anything I'll ever do again
