"Easy"
(duet with Natasha Bedingfield)

We broke up
yeah, it's tough
most guys would've been crushed
Wastin' their time
Wonderin' where they went wrong
No way, not me
Hey, I'm doing just fine
I'm not afraid of movin' on

It's easy going out on a Friday night
Easy every time I see her out
I can smile, live it up
The way a single guy does
But what she, what she don't know
Is how hard it is to make it look so
Easy

[Natasha Bedingfield]
The truth is
That I miss lyin' in those arms of his
But I don't ever let it show
I laugh and I act like
I'm having the time of my life
as far as he knows

It's easy goin' out on a Friday night
Easy, everytime I see him out
I can smile, live it up
The way a single girl does
But, what he, what he don't know
is how hard it is to make it look so
Easy
Oh, it's easy

Oh, it's easy goin' out on a Friday night
Oh, it's easy every time I see him out
I can smile, live it up
Forget about the way it was
But what she
Oh, what he don't know
What she don't know
Is how hard it is to make it look so
Easy
Look so easy

It’s easy going out and acting like you’re having the time of your life. It’s easy to act like you’re happy. It’s easy to act like you don’t care, in reality; it might be killing you inside. When people break up, you want the cover that you’re strong, you want the cover that you can go on without the other. You want to be able to go out in public and see the other and be perfectly fine. This is what these lyrics are saying. It looks easy going out, looking happy, but in reality it’s really hard, its hard making it look easy.

In Natasha Bedingfields part she is saying how she misses being in those arms of his, but she never lets it show. She makes it look like she is fine without him. They both are hurting inside but acting like they are fine.
