Simple Man

I saw you walking in the park yesterday
Didn't have the guts to make you stay
And if I did I wouldn't have much to say
So I'll settle for you walking away
I get a little nervous hey but that's OK
I could say hi, but I don't know your name
Besides you'd tell your friends that every guy is the same
If I could talk to you, I know just what I'd say
Hey, you look a little lonesome tonight
Something about you makes me feel alright
I wanna see how you look at night
Find a way to keep you in sight
I couldn't tell you what the ladies like
I can pretend to be a badass, but I'm not in real life
So lady if you want a simple man
I'm sitting here and I ain't got no plans
In my head it sounds romantic
But I can't walk around just talking in stanzas
I try to take it day by day
that way it's not as complicated
I ain't doing too much these days
Not making money or a lot anyway
And my apartment's kind of out of the way
It's a mess but it's a place to stay
I got a kitchen that I don't really use
Don't give me anything important 'cause I'll probably lose it
If that sounds like it could be OK
I'll walk on up to you and this is what I'll say
Hey, you look a little lonesome tonight
Something about you makes me feel alright
I wanna see how you look at night
Find a way to keep you in sight
I couldn't tell you what the ladies like
I can pretend to be a badass, but I'm not in real life
So lady if you want a simple man
I'm sitting here and I ain't got no plans
So you're walking in the park today
Yeah I don't blame you it's a nice sunny day
I thought I'd let you walk on by
I almost looked away but then to my surprise
You turned my way and your eyes caught mine
You walked on up to me and I had to smile
You said you saw me in the park yesterday
Wanted to talk but didn't know my name
Besides you didn't think that I felt the same
So you settled for just walking away
Said boy, if you want a simple girl
I'm here now and I ain't got all the time in the world
Hey, you look a little lonesome tonight
Something about you makes me feel alright
I wanna see how you look at night
Find a way to keep you in sight
I couldn't tell you what the ladies like
I can pretend to be a badass, but I'm not in real life
So you say you want a simple man
Well we're standing here and we ain't got no plans
Yeah we ain't got no plans
We ain't got no plans

Let Tonight Pass By
02:45

It's been a while since I've seen you
And here you are across the room
Well I've been waiting for a while
And I don't quite know what to do
Should I let the night pass by
Without knowing if you care
We could sit and wonder why
I think that'd be too much to bear
I know a few years have gone by
But do you ever wonder why
We have to live with so much doubt
One more thing to figure out
Am I too easy to ignore
Everyone here wants something more
I'm no good at seeing signs
So tell me how you feel sometime
You look bored standing there
I'd walk up to you if I knew we had a prayer
I won't let the night pass by
Without knowing if you care
We could sit and wonder why
I think that'd be too much to bear
I know a few years have gone by
But do you ever wonder why
We have to live with so much doubt
One more thing to figure out
I won't let the night pass by
Without knowing if you care
We could sit and wonder why
I think that'd be too much to bear
So pay me some attention
Did I forget to mention
I'm not interested in waiting
And my time just keeps on fading
I see you're with some other guy
So maybe not tonight
It's getting latte and I don't think that I should stay
No, i don't think that I should stay

I Wish I Was
04:22
|

Sense the burn and feel the sting
Everybody wants the newest thing
How could something be so sweet
But that sensation isn't deep
I dive down and feel the pain
You touch my arm, you'll be OK
Will you knock on my window still
I know you will, I know you will
My voice is gone, my heart is beating
I'm on my feet, I am defeated
We could leave now, just we two
What are you so afraid to lose
Behind your eyes I see the lies
So I see that you thought that I was blind
I wish I was, I wish I was
Your eyes are closed, your mind is through
You're lost somewhere, can't get to you
So what more is there to know
I think we both know how this goes
One of the things I hold onto
Is braving the cold to stand with you
It would have been easier just we two
But the world has a way of making fools
My voice is gone, my heart is beating
I'm on my feet, I am defeated
We could leave now, just we two
What are you so afraid to lose
Behind your eyes I see the lies
So I see that you thought that I was blind
I wish I was, I wish I was
I wish I was
I've never been one to confess
If I ask you, just say yes
Tighten the string, then cut it
Open the door, then shut it
Could I trouble you to stay
I will come for you someday
It was too beautiful to last
But did it have to go so fast
Did it have to go so fast
My voice is gone, my heart is beating
I'm on my feet, I am defeated
We could leave now, just we two
What are you so afraid to lose
Behind your eyes I see the lies
So I see that you thought that I was blind
I wish I was, I wish I was
I wish I was

One More Time
01:58
|

I don't have tome for this
One more touch and one last kiss
It's been a while since I tried this hard
You should know by now
You should know we both are scarred
One more train, one more trip
One last look at you
Why did I think that this was it
You were afraid, well that's just fine
I didn't have the patience
you didn't have the time
I couldn't stay
No we can't talk one more time
Our love is gone and that's alright
Now I'm gone I feel alright
I don't have you and that's alright with me
That's alright with me

Since I Found Me a Woman
05:48

Since I found me a woman
My house ain't mine no more
Said since I found me a woman
My house ain't mine no more
When she comes around
I'm running out my back door
Out to my neighbor's house
He don't know what I'm running for
When I got me that woman
You know she acted so sweet
When I got me that woman
She acted so very sweet
Now that we've been together
She takes up every day of the week
And if I'm not with that woman
She'll be so mad she can't speak
That girl of mine found me at my neighbor's house
I was watching TV stretched out on my neighbor's couch
When she saw me she ripped that TV off the wall
She threw it at me and I ran off down the hall
Oh, no!
She left me and she left me good
She walked out on me like she said that she would
Well there'll be no more joy in this world
Until I get me another girl
