[hometext] => This is a song about a person with a bad case of homesickness... which is understandable because of where some ppl are these days... and what they are doing and where they are at... comments welcomed...
[bodytext] => When and how... did my life... Become so complicated? When and how... did my life... Turn this one- eighty? I don't know... And I don't seem to care... anymore 'Cause all I long for now... is... The simple life I left... Waiting for me at home Just a simple life With you waiting there for me In some tropical paradise... On a lonesome stretch of beach Living a simple life... is... Where I long to be Now... it where I cling... it's all I want... it's all I need Just a simple life For you... for me If you know me... like you say you do Then... you know... there's nothing fancy about me There's nothing to keep me... tied down here Except someone's harsh words... just to be unkind And these ugly chains that bind Otherwise... I've got nothing to show So won't you please... Just set me free... let me go So I can live my life as best I can Take life one day at a time Just sit and stare... Out the window of my life.. Just to clear these haunted thoughts and memories from my mind... Just to think of a life... When I was living in a simpler time Just a simple life With you waiting there for me In some tropical paradise... On a lonesome stretch of beach Living a simple life... is... Where I long to be Now... it where I cling... it's all I want... it's all I need Just a simple life For you... for me Now... I just sit and stare... into the darkness of my mind Where everything in this screwed up society tries to hide Where no love can even survive Where there's no one left to care Where there's no compassion anymore Where not a scrap of humanity is left to compare Just a wasteland of broken dreams and empty schemes And heartaches are caught... in a web of lies and deceit This... this has become my reality All I long for... is... Just a simple life With you waiting there for me In some tropical paradise... On a lonesome stretch of beach Living a simple life... is... Where I long to be Now... it where I cling... it's all I want... it's all I need... Just a simple life For you... for me [comments] => 3 [counter] => 147 [topic] => 34 [informant] => kidpoet_213 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )
