Simplicity Lyrics

I try every way I know to tell you, I run down all my clever ways
Every smart forever phrase
How'm I gonna get her? Hack out another love letter?
But you deserve better, babeThe hardest thing for me is true simplicity
But it's the only thing that's good enough for youEvery day I wake up later, I'm afraid to face the sun
I want to hide from everyone
Memory is bitter, tell myself I'm no quitter
But the gold no longer glitters babeThe hardest thing for me is true simplicity
But it's the only thing that's good enough for youBlood in a bucket
No rhyme, mainline, sunshine
And it's the nearest
This boy's been to joyAnd I do believe, I shall believe
I shall be free on the day you say you need me
Need me, need me, yaaI push the doorknob to the booze
I might try out for the blues, aching and lonely
What does it take to telephone me?
I'm much too close to breakingBut I do believe, I shall believe
I shall be free on the day you say you need me

Need me, need me, yaa, yaa, yaaThe hardest thing for me, is true simplicity
It's the only thing that's good enough for you
The hardest thing for me is true simplicity
It's the only thing that's good enough for you
Yaa, yaa
