Ed Prosek & Lucy Clearwater - Let Me Down Easy (Live Session)

'Let Me Down Easy' by Ed Prosek and Lucy Clearwater

This is simply one of my favourite songs! Lucy and I wrote it at the end of last year in my studio, and it instantly captivated us both. We spent a lot of time working on the harmonies, and I love how we change lines throughout the song, leaving the melodies open to a little interpretation. The sincerity of the lyrics and the intimacy of the recording just complete this in a way I’m so endlessly proud of!

Lyrics:

Look at what you’ve done
Thought I was clever
But now I know better
Cause I got too caught up
Stuck in the clouds
I can’t find my way out
Of this life you made me want
I hoped I’d be more
Than another possession of yours

If you’re gonna let me down
Then let me down easy
Cause heaven knows I’ve been through enough
If you’re gonna let me down
Then let me down easy
Cause I let myself get my hopes up
So when you let me down
Won’t you do it with love
Oh when you let me down
Won’t you do it with love

Tell me what went wrong
But do it gently
And don’t tell me everything
If it’ll just hurt me more
Everything seems to be
Breaking to pieces and
Falling on the floor
And I guess I’ll be next
If I’m just a possession of yours

If you’re gonna let me down
Then let me down easy
Cause heaven knows I’ve been through enough
If you’re gonna let me down
Then let me down easy
Cause I let myself get my hopes up

Ooh If you’re gonna let me down
Then let me down easy
Cause heaven knows I’ve been through enough
If you’re gonna let me down
Then let me down easy
Cause I let myself get my hopes up

So when you let me down
Won’t you do it with love
Oh when you let me down
Won’t you do it with love
So when you let me down
Won’t you do it with love
