Simple Man
He should've seen it coming,
When the love grew old.
Wife and kids, they left him
And the house got sold.
The silence getting louder
Nightfall comes too soon
He lost everything, now shooting bullets at the Moon.
Saw him living with another man
Two smiling faces
Walking hand in hand
When your imagination gets the best of you
When it's too much to take
Like from a nightmare you wake
And a hole in your shoes
When all is said and done
Living life on the run
Does anybody know his name?
Once he sets out to be free
Now he's down on his knees
And got no one else to blame
The one in the life
With no plan
He's just a simple man
Right down my face
Still not meant to be
The dreams got run over by reality
Whatever destination that he might choose
The hole in his heart
Just like the holes in his shoes
Sail in the blue
When all is said and done
Living life on the run
Does anybody know his name?
Once he sets out to be free
Now he's down on his knees
And got no one else to blame
Just some wine and some smoke
For the pain of the simple man
He's just a simple man
Doing all that he can
He's just a simple man
When the love grew old.
Wife and kids, they left him
And the house got sold.
The silence getting louder
Nightfall comes too soon
He lost everything, now shooting bullets at the Moon.
Saw him living with another man
Two smiling faces
Walking hand in hand
When your imagination gets the best of you
When it's too much to take
Like from a nightmare you wake
And a hole in your shoes
When all is said and done
Living life on the run
Does anybody know his name?
Once he sets out to be free
Now he's down on his knees
And got no one else to blame
The one in the life
With no plan
He's just a simple man
Right down my face
Still not meant to be
The dreams got run over by reality
Whatever destination that he might choose
The hole in his heart
Just like the holes in his shoes
Sail in the blue
When all is said and done
Living life on the run
Does anybody know his name?
Once he sets out to be free
Now he's down on his knees
And got no one else to blame
Just some wine and some smoke
For the pain of the simple man
He's just a simple man
Doing all that he can
He's just a simple man
