Simple Life

[Verse 1]
I want to be an herbalist
Turmeric stained hands
Spend my days in the forest
Foraging the land
Hours in the apothecary, candle burning low
Am I lonely? No not very
Friends, they come and go

[Chorus]
It’s the simple life
Workin’ with my hands
It’s the simple life
Maybe you understand
There’s no internet, no screens to take me away from who I am
I’m at home in my own mind and I feel fine

[Verse 2]
I want to be a storyteller
Spinning my own tales
Captivatin’ on the front porch
Children climbing on the rails
What’ll happen next?
Well you’ll have to wait and see
Weaving yarns with big hand gestures
All eyes on me

[Chorus]
It’s the simple life
Workin’ with my hands
It’s the simple life
Maybe you understand
There’s no internet, no screens to take me away from who I am
I’m at home in my own mind and I feel fine

[Bridge]
Have we lost what we used to know?
Now we’re slowly coming home again
And don’t it feel good though?
How we spend our time, all the things that we could sow…
That’s the simple life, don’t you know

[Verse 3]
I want to be a farmer
Earth beneath my feet
Rosy cheeks at sunrise
Plow doesn’t miss a beat
Working seeds into the land
Then let the soil rest
There’ll be a bounty where I stand
Before the winter sets

[Chorus]
It’s the simple life
Workin’ with my hands
It’s the simple life
Maybe you understand
There’s no internet, no screens to take me away from who I am
I’m at home in my own mind and I feel fine

I’m at home in my own mind and I feel fine

Home sweet home, and I feel fine
