Simple as That

Sun sets on a tiny little house
Sittin' just outside of the city
Dad's on the front porch
Wide open front door

She's upset, finally gettin' out
And only gettin' madder by the minute
She looks it over once more
Then she walks out the front door

And she said,
"How about we call this
Exactly what it is
We're both at the end
And time just drags on
I got no more to give
Patience wearing thin"

See we try and try
Seems a thousand times
And the one thing that we need the most
Is what we can't get right

See it started out so promising
Somehow got off track
I just wanna be in love
With the one I love
And have them love me back
It's as simple as that

He was her first love
And her last love, too
Even though there were a couple in the middle
But he always came home
He always made his way home
Goin' out every night with his friends
'Cause he worked to hard for a livin'
The feeling that he had's gone
And so he hardly came home

And he said,
"How about we call this
Exactly what it is
We're both at the end
And time just drags on
I got no more to give
I'm sick of how it is"

See we try and try
Seems a thousand times
And the one thing that we need the most
Is what we can't get right

See it started out so promising
Somehow got off track
I just wanna be in love
With the one I love
And have them love me back
It's as simple as that
Mmm, it's as simple as that

See it started out so promising
Somehow got off track
I just wanna be in love
With the one I love
And have them love me back
It's as simple as that
