Lyrics Let Us Down Easy - Ryan Adams & The Cardinals

In all my life mercy
Hasn′t known my name this well
Like how every sea filters out
And leads us gently to a creek
We sit around
Some of us are strong
But the rest of us are weak
So let us down if you must
But let us down easy, Lord
Let us down easy, Lord
Ooh, let us down
In patches of pink clouds, thick smoke
It comes rising off the hillside slopes
Down here in this neighborhood
It's just the dumps with cars iced up
Perfect for writing on if you′re wearing gloves
Every season I spend alone
Feels like a thousand
To my heart and in my soul
So let me down if you must
But let us down easy, Lord
Let us down easy, Lord
Ooh, let us down
Let us down, let us down, let us down
Let us down, let us down, let us down
Instead of praying I tell God these jokes
He must be tired of himself so much
He must be more than disappointed
Christmas comes as we eat alone
And pretty girl around sound pretty bore
Who takes your order, she yells it
And she cries alone in the back room
Once it stops then she smiles
So let her down if you must
But let us down easy, Lord
Let us down easy, Lord
Let us down easy, Lord
Ooh, let us down
(Let us down, let us down, let us down)
Let us down easy, Lord
(Let us down, let us down, let us down)
Let us down
(Let us down, let us down, let us down)
Let us down easy, Lord
(Let us down, let us down, let us down)
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
Let us down, let us down, let us down easy
