Simple Like That

a halftime shuffle and a 4/4 roll
why can't it be simple like that?
just you and me and the cigarette glow
singing "sha-la-la-la-la-la"
on the graffitied wall with arcata below
why can't it be simple like that?
a song and a wink and you're dress and a drink
why can't it be simple like that?
lions and lambs and toucans and crabs
singing "sha-la-la-la-la-la"
and the birds and the bees and the thoughts of trees
why can't it be simple like that?
because all i want to know
is how many ways can i say that i love you today?
a trip in the truck and your breath on my neck
why can't it be simple like that
a one and a two and a three, here we go
singing "sha-la-la-la-la-la"
and the moon and the stars and all that cool stuff, yeah
why can't it be simple like that
can't decide what to wear so we wear no clothes
why can't it be simple like that?
we don't care who sees and we don't care who knows
'cause we're singing "sha-la-la-la-la-la"
and counting the crickets and guessing the temp
why can't it be simple like that?
a halftime shuffle and a 4/4 roll
why can't it be simple like that?

how you walk, how you move
how you sit down and listen
it's downright christian
and i still love you
how we speak, how we dance
without any shoes on
with the waves and the sand
and i still love you
and sarah i'm sorry
well lemme try and explain what i mean
sarah i'm sorry
but i hope you still see me at night when you sleep
and i'm not mad 'cause i know
that whoever he is, well, he must be a good one
'cause you've got good taste
but i won't stick around
i'll be right over here on the other side of town far away
but i still love you bug
as of now, as of tonight
you're the best goddamned thing that's ever happened in my life
and i know i'm stronger for knowing you
as of now, as of tonight
well, i don't want to admit it
but i think i just did it and you....smh
and your face and your smile
felt like i was finally home after years and lifetimes far away
on some distant shore
but i've learned, now i know
that the prettiest words that have ever been spoke are
"what might've been....
...isn't it pretty to think so?"
