Simple Math Lyrics by Kathleen Edwards

Total Freedom

2020

[Verse 1]
All these people in my life
Come in and out like a kite
Just bobbing like a breeze in a changing wind
That's just the way it is
Numbers never were my strength
And I barely got a passing grade
You teach me

[Chorus]
Love is simple math
I don't care how old we get
I'm just one and you're one and we're two together
I'm okay being friends forever

[Verse 2]
You and I were only eight
Growing up on the same street
Just bobbing likе a breeze in a changing wind
Oh, when you're just a kid
But everything and nothing changes
And now your girls are the same age
Well, you, you teach me

[Chorus]
Love is simple math
I don't care how old we get
I'm just one and you're one and we're two together
I'm okay being friends forever

[Bridge]
Safety pins to taper our jeans
We were raising hell in the back seat
Building forts in cedar trees
Ice cream banana seats
Running wild in our bare feet
Everything and nothing changes
And now we are our mother's age

[Chorus]
And love is simple math
I don't care how old we get
I'm just one and you're one and we're two together
I'm okay being friends forever
Oh, love is simple math
And I can be a total pain in the ass
And I'm just one and you're one and we're two together
I'm okay being friends forever
