Paolo Nutini - Simple Things lyrics

rate me

<BR>

If you love the life you live<br>

Then you'll get a lot more done<br>

Be more inclined to take the reins<br>

Than turn away and run<br>

It's very rare it seems to get a lifetime guarantee,<br>

So I suppose self satisfaction be the key<br>

My father is a wealthy, self made man<br>

But his wealth does not consist of riches or acres of land<br>

Instead he has a family who are<br>

His biggest fans<br>

That's something that I one day hope to have<br>

So I'll cherish the simple things<br>

The easy took for granted things<br>

Like going round my Mum's house for my tea<br>

And argue with my sister,<br>

Only God knows how I missed her<br>

It's the simple things that mean the most to me<br>

<br>

Argh, he gets up each day at five<br>

Starts the car and makes the drive<br>

Shutters up, starts the fryers<br>

Serves out food to all the buyers in the town<br>

As they stand there in the same old line<br>

Get there every day at the same old time<br>

No, you never hear him grumble and groan<br>

Cause they're the people in the line that he built it on<br>

And like me he cherished the simple things<br>

The easy took for granted things<br>

Like going round his Mum's house for my tea<br>

And argue with his sister,<br>

Only God knows how he missed her<br>

It's the simple things tha mean the most to... him<br>

<BR><BR>
