Simple Things

Lately, I've been asked some questions

To things that don't have answers, it keeps me up at night

On a high wire, the world below is on fire

And I can't seem to get there in time to put it out

Well, hope can hold us all together

But not forever, what can I do about it now?

Getting by on simple things, letting go of material dreams

Search for quiet in my mind

Take a minute, look up at the stars, go for glory on the air guitar

Step outside, find my voice and sing

Pleasure in simple things

I took for granted little special moments

Lit up and fade like fireflies in the early summer nights

Drinking Cheerwine and laughing with my daughter

Dancing 'round the backyard and losing track of time

Well, love will hold us all together

Maybe forever, what can I do about it now?

Getting by on simple things, letting go of material dreams

Search for quiet in my mind

Take a minute, look up at the stars, go for glory on the air guitar

Step outside, find my voice and sing

Pleasure in simple things

There's a few answers that I know for certain

I didn't need the questions for me to figure out

It's the small things, the hope you share and the love you bring

Not chandeliers or diamond rings, don't ever have a doubt

Getting by on simple things, letting go of material dreams

Search for quiet in my mind

Take a minute, look up at the stars, go for glory on the air guitar

Step outside, find my voice and sing

Pleasure in simple things

Getting by on simple things

Getting by on simple things
