Simple Man
Music and Lyrics: Todd Thibaud

I’m a simple man, but it’s complicated
I like my conscience clean so I keep it just a bit sedated
I’ve got an able heart, and a worried mind
I could work it out but I think I’m running out of time

But don’t say love
Honey that’s not the word
Coming off our lips it might sound a little too absurd
It’s a simple thing, that thing we’d love to try
But, we’ll have to live with just another long goodbye

I’m a foolish man, I know it’s true
I think a better man could’ve washed his hands of you
But here I am, I haven’t got a hope
I’m bound in the hands of fate and baby you’re the rope

But don’t say love
Honey that’s not the word
Coming off our lips it might sound a little too absurd
It’s a simple thing, that thing we’d love to try
But, we’ll have to live with just another long goodbye

I’m a desperate man, the dangerous kind
I can see the painful truth but still I’m blind
And I walk on, just like I know the way
It’ll all come down when they find me out someday

But don’t say love
Honey that’s not the word
Coming off our lips it might sound a little too absurd
It’s a simple thing, that thing we’d love to try
But, we’ll have to live with just another long goodbye
