Lyrics
Simple Pleasures
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
you don't have to be so strong
don't move mountains for me
don't slay a dragon
every time you run back here
you are more than a knight in shining armour
who would need a prince...
anyway i don't believe in fairy tales
let's leave them for the dreamers
there is something much more real i'm after--
simple pleasures--bliss i finally found
in ordinary home-made treasures
on familiar ground
when i'm with you--the time's so precious
hours flying past
we've got to take some long-term measures
so simple joy is here to last
don't go yet...
i'll be missing your smile,
your gentle voice, so soothing...
very night and day i will long for the warmth
of your embrace
so who would need a prince
anyway i don't believe in fairy tales
let's leave them for the dreamers
there is something much more real i'm after--
simple pleasures...
