Simple Song

Well this is just a simple song To say what you've done I told you about all those fears And away they did run You sure must be strong When 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, and bleed like a stone Could be there’s nothing else in our lives, so critical As this little home My life in an upturned boat Marooned on a cliff You brought me a great big flood And you gave me a lift Girl, what a gift! You tell me with your tongue And your breath was in my lungs And we float up through the rift I know that things can really get rough when you go it alone Don't go thinking you gotta be tough, and bleed like a stone Could be there's nothing else in our lives, so critical As this little home Well this would be a simple song To say what you've done I told you about all those fears And away they did run You sure must be strong When you feel like an ocean being warmed by the sun Remember walking a mile to your house Aglow in the dark I made a fumbling play for your heart And the act struck a spark You wore a charm on the chain that I stole Especial for you Love's such a delicate thing that we do With nothing to prove Which I never knew
