gatsby - Newfoundland

Simple Things

Fashioning some happiness
Out of this cold air
Dispensing with appearances
They'll get you nowhere
Got to engineer some peace of mind for myself
Help me find it

'Cos I've been chasing round my tail
And I, I never quite found it
Can't circumvent this human state
You can't just fly round it
Got to engineer some peace of mind for ourselves
Love of mine
Take me where the music goes
Where it ends no-one knows
Savouring the simple things
Don't change 'em for anything

My boat got grounded
And my heart unwound
The body bending
To the here and now

Got to engineer some peace of mind for myself
Help me find it

If you and I could leave this place
Get out of these suburbs
Maybe just rejuvenate
Under the covers

And engineer some peace of mind for ourselves
Love of mine
Orchestrate a quiet coup
Come on, you're dying to
Surrender to the scheme of things
Savour the simple things

I'm savouring the simple things
We're safer with the simple things
Savouring the simple things
We're safer with the simple things
