Why Was It So Easy Lyrics

Cover art for Why Was It So Easy lyrics by Daryl Hall

About an affair with an actress or a model, I think... They spend the night in her hotel room, and later in life her behavior towards the narrator implies that she doesn't think of him fondly anymore. "The sad words that I hear you say must mean you don't hold me inside you." Assuming she rarely thinks of him at all. But... "I only hope that you think of me in a hotel room."

I love these lyrics.
