Simple Things Lyrics by Nana Adjoa

A Tale so Familiar

2018

[Verse 1]
Simple thing
What does it mean
To a king or queen
To old and young
In different tongues
To no ones and nomads
Why am I so bad
At simple things
Simple thing
To keep it light
Break my wings
While I'm in flight
And I feel it now
As I'm falling down
There's something heavy about
Simple things
[Chorus]
Make believe is trying to keep me
From your side, from your side
Fantasies, run so deep
To keep it light, keep it light
[Verse 2]
Simple fling
Child's play to you
Elementary stuff
You called my bluff
Cause these invisible strings
People seem to pull
I want to see them too
I want to feel aligned
But I must be blind
To simple things
[Chorus]
Make believe is trying to keep me
From your side, from your side
Fantasies, run too deep
To keep it light, keep it light
[Bridge]
In the clear, I disappear, I want you here
In my wordless world, no strings attached, no marionettes
But I can connect, my idle wish, for your simple kiss
[Chorus]
Make believe is trying to keep me
From your side, from your side
Fantasies, run too deep
To keep it light, keep it light
