Simple Song Songtext
von Elliott Park

Like the birds up in the apple trees
Let the world hear this simple song

Here′s your smile, rusty from the tears you weep
Here's your happy starlight gone beneath your feet
Are your hopes locked in a jar in a cellar damp and dark
There between the pickles and the peas

Are you stocked up for the winter of despair
Waiting for a meteor to burn your hair
If you ever feel the urge to take a breather from your dirge
Here′s a little coin for you to keep

A simple song
That your heart can sing
Not too long, rather short and sweet
Like the birds in the apple trees
Let the world hear your simple song


It begins as just a flutter deep in you
As it grows, you feel some yellow in your blue
You can run but you can't hide
When a smile begins to rise
Like the Terminator wearing big red shoes

A simple song
That your heart can sing
Not too long, rather short and sweet
Like the birds in the apple trees
Let the world hear your simple song

A simple song
That your heart can sing
Not too long, rather short and sweet
Like the birds in the apple trees
Let the world hear your simple song

A simple song
That your heart can sing
Not too long, rather short and sweet
Like the birds in the apple trees
Let the world hear your simple song
Let the world hear your simple song
Cause the world needs a simple song
