Simple Things |
When I was growing up |
And times were hard |
Many people often thought |
They owned me |
When I got older |
I knew that they were wrong |
But now that conviction |
Has outgrown me |
Once I knew a beggarman |
Like you or me |
He cried out: |
I want no one to hold me |
He chased after freedom |
And he drank from every cup |
Now he knows everything |
But why he’s lonely |
I knew a girl |
From a fancy school |
Who hated lies |
She threw away illusions |
From her hand |
She kicked away each fading truth |
As it came under her eyes |
When she looked down |
She had no place to stand |
I know that people |
Can get messed up bad |
Not even believe |
They can get through it all |
Someone to love |
And someone’s child |
Are simple things, it’s true |
But in this world |
We never made |
The simple things will do |
