Simple Things

[Verse 1]
Lately, I've been asked some questions
To things that don't have answers, it keeps me up at night
On a high wire, the world below is on fire
And I can't seem to get there in time to put it out

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, hope can hold us all together
But not forever, what can I do about it now?

[Chorus]
Getting by on simple things, letting go of material dreams
Search for quiet in my mind
Take a minute, look up at the stars, go for glory on the air guitar
Step outside, find my voice and sing
Pleasure in simple things

[Verse 2]
I took for granted little special momеnts
Lit up and fade like firefliеs in the early summer nights
Drinking Cheerwine and laughing with my daughter
Dancing 'round the backyard and losing track of time

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, love will hold us all together
Maybe forever, what can I do about it now?

[Chorus]
Getting by on simple things, letting go of material dreams
Search for quiet in my mind
Take a minute, look up at the stars, go for glory on the air guitar
Step outside, find my voice and sing
Pleasure in simple things

[Bridge]
There's a few answers that I know for certain
I didn't need the questions for me to figure out
It's the small things, the hope you share and the love you bring
Not chandeliers or diamond rings, don't ever have a doubt

[Chorus]
Getting by on simple things, letting go of material dreams
Search for quiet in my mind
Take a minute, look up at the stars, go for glory on the air guitar
Step outside, find my voice and sing
Pleasure in simple things

[Outro]
Getting by on simple things
Getting by on simple things
