A simple man

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.

Time to look, time to laugh

Time to tear it all and head

'Cause you've found you don't know where you're going

Went to school all the years

But now you see that nothin' is clear

'Cause you've found no one really knows

I am but a simple man

Tryin' to do the best I can

Here in the world where I must live my life

Time to run, time to hide

Time to dig your way inside

'Cause you see your friends in a mass of confusion

And your dad can't explain

Why you're feelin' that you're insane

But don't you see, he is just as fine

I am but a simple man

Tryin' to do the best I can

Here in the world where I must live my life

I am but a simple man

Tryin' to do the best I can

Here in the world where I must live my life

I am but a simple man

Tryin' to do the best I can

Here in the world where I must live my life

(I am but a simple man)

(Tryin' to do the best I can)

(Here in the world where I must live my life)

Time to look, time to hide

Time to dig your way inside

Time to laugh, and tear it all and head

Can't you see you don't know where to go, oh, oh...

Alright

Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

Oh, oh...
