Simple Things

Wasted days, I’m caught up in the fruitless chase

Wanting more than anything that’s come before

And I wish I didn’t have to choose

When I know there is so much to lose

Cruel desires blind me to the simple things

Lost in fires of passionate imaginings

Cruel desires blind me to the simple things

Lost in fires of passionate imaginings

Simple things, simple things

Holding out, feeling that it just might come

Cursing doubt that keeps you from the perfect one

And I wish I didn’t have to choose

When I know there is so much to lose

Cruel desires blind me to the simple things

Lost in fires of passionate imaginings

Cruel desires blind me to the simple things

Lost in fires of passionate imaginings

Simple things, simple things

I’m torn between what I know and what I dream
