And you were standing,
Buying roses from a girl,
And, I was silent,
Frozen in a silent world,
The rain was falling
Rainbows swirling down the drain,
And, I was dreaming
I was dreaming in the rain…
And, ain’t it simple,
And, ain’t it simple,
When the world falls into place?
And, ain’t it simple,
And, ain’t it simple,
When you see a pretty face?
And, you looked through me,
Like a shadow in the rain,
But, were you smiling?
I’m invisible again,
Yet again.
And, you were leaving,
Roses hanging in the air,
I might have called out,
If it mattered more,
I wonder if you’d even care,
Do you care?
And the rain was falling,
It was falling to the ground,
And, I was laughing,
I was laughing at the sound.
And, ain’t it simple,
And, ain’t it simple,
When the world falls into place?
And, ain’t it simple,
And, ain’t it simple,
When you see a pretty face?
And, ain’t it simple,
And, ain’t it simple,
When the world falls into place?
And, ain’t it simple,
And, ain’t it simple,
When you see a pretty face?
