Simple Song歌词

作词 : James Mercer
作曲 : James Mercer
Well this is just a simple song
To say what you done
I told you about all those fears
And away they did run
You sure must be strong
And you feel like an ocean
Being warmed by the sun
When I was just nine years old
I swear that I dreamt
Your face on a football field
And a kiss that I kept
Under my vest
Apart from everything
but the heart in my chest
I know that things can really get rough
when you go it alone
Don’t go thinking you gotta be tough
to play like a stone
Could be there’s nothing else
in our lives so critical
As this little hole
My life in an upturned
boat marooned on a cliff
You brought me a great big flood
And you gave me a lift
To care what a gift
You tell me with your tongue
And your breath was in my lungs
And you float over the rift
I know that things can really get rough
when you go it alone
Don’t go thinking you gotta be tough
to play like a stone
Could be there’s nothing else
in our lives so critical
As this little hole
Well this will be a simple song to
say what you’ve done
I told you about all those years
and away they did run
You sure must be strong
And you feel like an ocean
Being warmed by the sun
Remember walking a mile to
your house a glow in the dark
I made a fumblin’ play for your heart
and the extra the spark
You wore a charm in a chain
that I stole specially for you
Love’s such a delicate thing that
we do we’ve nothing to prove
Which I never knew
