All These Simple Things

People fall away in all the simple things,
Things I could have been to make it easy.
And if I could wait, you know I would stay
Right outside your door ‘till I know you’re ready,

Ready for the morning.
I’m ready for the cold hard truth to take me.
So we’ll cross the water again,
And all these simple things.

So we try to laugh, make it some funny thing,
Still I’m looking back, I was living.
It all comes crumbling down, makes it easy, now
Lay it on the floor, now I think I’m ready,

Ready for the morning.
I’m ready for the cold hard truth to take me
Far across the water again,
And all these simple things.

So we try to laugh, to make it easier now
Beside me on the floor, that was living.
And in these fun days, in these final laughs
Try to make it last till I know I’m ready

Ready for the morning.
I’m ready for the cold hard truth to take me.
So we’ll cross the water again,
And all these simple things.
