Testo Simple Life
You say, we're getting older
you say, remember when?
when we were younger
and a mother hungered
for a simple life....
i remember years ago when you came into my room
i'd scream and then i'd laugh at you, like a teenage boy will do not a brother then or friend to say,
"you're too beautiful to count the ways"
you were lovely with your broken smile
i was blinded by your light
seventeen and almost grown
i found a place to call my own
you came into my door that night so alive alive alive
we drank the wine that night to take the dare
it hit you hard
i held your hair
you were lovely with your broken smile
i began to see the light
yeah, when you're feeling a little low yeah, when you're cryin' out for more
yeah, i'll be running
never far from where you are
twenty four he broke your heart
they flew me home to see your dark
through a canyon deep in desert land we would drive and drive and drive
you said "let's melt into the ground today
stare at the clouds and laugh away"
you were lovely with your broken smile
i was proud to see your light
i'm thinking 50 years from now
when all is said and done
with babies grown and lovers gone
to time and time and time
we'll recall the days when mom would say
"you're too beautiful to count the ways"
you'll be lovely with your broken smile
when you rise into the light
yeah, when you're feeling a little low
yeah, when you're cryin' out for more
yeah, i'll be running
never far from where you are
they'll say, "we're gettin' older"
they'll say, "remember when?....
when they were younger and a mother hungered
for a simple life...a simple life...."
