Nanci Griffith - Simple Life lyrics

rate me

(chorus)

I want a simple life

Like my mother

One true love for my older years

I don't want your wars

To take my children

I want a simple life…while I'm here

The sun and moon walk hand in hand together

Trading places shining on the truth

The moon moves the bottoms of the oceans

So, the sun can bring a farmer's hands to you

(chorus)

We all seek comfort in the light of day

And our tears can wash off in the rain

Everything we need is all around us

In simple time and simple ways

Mother nature talks

Whispering her thoughts

So the paths we choose to cross

Walk one more day

(chorus)
