シンプル・シングスの歌詞

Intro
They say money can't buy you love/They say money can't buy you love
They never seem to listen/I'm all ears

Verse 1
Just copped your girl a brand new Rolex
But you can't never find the time to spend at home
Thinkin' that's gon' keep her happy/Your time is all she wanted all along

Hook
It's the simple things in life we forget/You hear her talking but don't
hear what she said/Why do you make something so easy so complicated
Searchin' for what's right in front of your face/But you can't see it

Verse 2
So you think you know what's important/Steady chasin' your fame and your fortune
But you don't know/You're chasin' a dime, losing a treasure
Those dollars don't make sense to me at all
It goes/Da da da/You give her all your money
Da da da da/But all she wanna spend is time alone (tonight)
Keep givin' her/The finer things/But she don't really need that
If you don't stop/You're gonna end up alone
In the world without love/Why would you do it

Hook
It's the simple things in life we forget/You hear her talking but don't
hear what she said/Why do you make something so easy so complicated
Searchin' for what's right in front of your face/But you can't see it

Hook
It's the simple things in life we forget/You hear her talking but don't
hear what she said/Why do you make something so easy so complicated
Searchin' for what's right in front of your face/But you can't see it

Bridge
Stop tryin' to buy her love
'Cause you won't ever have enough/There's always someone
With more than you/You need to pay her attention/Give her what she needs
Do the simple thing/Before you lose your girl to me

Hook
It's the simple things in life we forget/You hear her talking but don't
hear what she said/Why do you make something so easy so complicated
Searchin' for what's right in front of your face/But you can't see it

Vamp
You better look out/I hear you talking but what are you sayin'/Don't be a fool
You got a good thang
Man, are you blind, stupid or crazy/You got a good thang
You got a good thang/If that's your lady/You better hold on/Give her what she wants

Before she moves on/Man, I'm telling you cars, clothes and fancy things don't mean a damn thang
If you ain't cakin' and bakin', babe

Hook
It's the simple things in life we forget/You hear her talking but don't
hear what she said/Why do you make something so easy so complicated
Searchin' for what's right in front of your face/But you can't see it

Don't let this be the thing you always regret/Right there in front of your face
