Easy from Now On
Embracing Freedom: Terri Clark's "Easy from Now On" Meaning Unveiled
Lyrics
There he goes, gone again
Expressing the departure of a man once again.
Same old story's gotta come to an end
Highlighting a repetitive nature in the speaker's romantic experiences, emphasizing the need for closure.
Lovin' him was a one-way street
Describing the one-sided nature of the speaker's love for the man.
But I'm getting off where the crossroads meet
Deciding to end the relationship at the point where choices diverge.
A quarter moon in a ten-cent town
Setting the scene with a metaphorical quarter moon in a cheap town, indicating a low point in the speaker's life.
Time for me to lay my heartaches down
Expressing the need to move on and let go of sorrows.
Saturday night and I'm gonna make myself a name
Committing to a night of self-discovery and making a mark for oneself.
Take a month of Sundays to try and explain
Acknowledging the complexity of explaining the decision to others over an extended period.
It's gonna be easy to fill the heart of a thirsty woman
Anticipating that it will be easy to bring happiness to a woman who has been longing for love.
Harder to kill the ghost of a no-good man
Recognizing the difficulty of overcoming the lingering memories of a deceitful man.
And I'll be ridin' high in a fandangled sky
Visualizing a triumphant and joyous future, riding high in the sky.
It's gonna be easy
Reiterating the belief that the upcoming experiences will be effortless.
It's gonna be easy from now on
Emphasizing the expectation of an easy life moving forward.
Raw as the wind, but clean as bone
Describing the speaker as unrefined but honest and genuine.
Soft to the touch when you take me home
Highlighting the tenderness and vulnerability when in a close relationship.
When the morning comes and it's time for me to leave
Preparing for a departure the next morning and assuring that the speaker has a backup plan.
Don't worry about me 'cause I got a wild card up my sleeve
Expressing confidence in handling unexpected situations with a clever solution.
It's gonna be easy to fill the heart of a thirsty woman
Repeating the anticipation of bringing joy to a woman's heart.
Harder to kill the ghost of a no-good man
Reiterating the challenge of overcoming the haunting memories of a deceitful man.
And I'll be ridin' high in a fandangled sky
Imagining a successful and exciting future.
It's gonna be easy
Affirming the belief that life will be easy moving forward.
It's gonna be easy from now on
Reinforcing the expectation of a trouble-free life in the future.
