Simple Days Lyrics by Brian Reith

How the Story Ends

0

[Intro]
I just wanna get back to the way things used to be (be)

[Verse 1]
You remember when we had nothin' but that was more than
Good enough for you and me
'Cause our love it was so strong
All we needed was each other to be happy
We would always say there'd be no way we'd see the day when
Anything would drive us apart
You would always be first place
Be the captor of my heart

All we've accumulated
Oh, it's so overrated
What happened to the fire that sparked when we first met?

[Hook]
I just wanna get back to the way things used to be
When it was just you and me
Everything was so simple
Said, how in the world did it get so complicated?
Everything I have I would trade it
Just to go back to the days when it was only you and me (me, me)
Only you and me (me, me)

[Verse 2]
Used to sit at night under the stars up in the sky and
Stare into each other's eyes
Deep inside we knew we had everything we'd ever need to survive
We were younger then
Our future was so bright ahead of us
We made some wrong turns along the way
What we gained stole our attention
And it cost us our affection (yeah)

All we've accumulated
Oh, it's so overrated
Wish I could trade it in for all the time we've lost (now)

[Hook]

Let's forget every single thing we've known
Go back to the days when everything was beautiful and simple
Let's throw away everything that we have gained
'Cause it's only gotten in the way of what I loved in the first place
You are the first place

[Hook] x2
