A Simple Life Lyrics by David James Gibson

2020

I could have been anything
I could have had it all
I could have been loved and respected
And fêted by them all
I could have stood tall
Been so much more than I know
But I've lived my simple life
With quiet contentment, and love for each moment
Knowing how lucky I was to be alive
I could have seen so many things
Walked the paths of heroes and joked around with kings
And been to many different places, all around the world
And felt the sand on foreign beaches, warm and soft beneath my toes
And I
Could have called them home
But I've lived my simple life
With quiet contentment, and love for each moment
Knowing how lucky I was to be alive
To be alive
So many things, I could have been
In a different life, if only I had found the time
So far from here, in a different world
A different person, somewhere out in the unknown
But baby I
Would only long to be back home
Where I've lived my simple life
With quiet contentment, and love for each moment
Knowing how lucky I was to be alive
To be alive
To be alive
I could have been anything
Anything at all
But I lived my simple life
Knowing how lucky I was to be alive
