| Oh she danced in the street with the guns all around her |
| All torn like a rag doll, barefoot in the rain |
| And she sang like a child, toora-day toora-daddy |
| Oh how will I ever be simple again |
| She sat by the banks of the dirty grey river |
| And tried for a fish with a worm on a pin |
| There was nothing but fever and ghosts in the water |
| Oh how will I ever be simple again |
| War was my love and my friend and companion |
| And what did I care for the pretty and plain |
| But her smile was so clear and my heart was so troubled |
| Oh how will I ever be simple again |
| In her poor burned-out house I sat at her table |
| The smell of her hair was like cornfields in May |
| And I wanted to weep and my eyes ached from trying |
| Oh how will I ever be simple again |
| So graceful she moved through the dust and the ruin |
| And happy she was in her dances and games |
| Oh teach me to see with your innocent eyes, love |
| Oh how will I ever be simple again |
| Oh how will I ever be simple again |
