Simple Life

I could grow old living in the backwoods
Watching the birds dance with the light
I could be saved in a wooden church
Leaning on a bed of crooked pine

I, I want that simple life
I, I wouldn't mind

I could sell my coats, float down the river
Get rid of my home, plant a couple seeds
I could be brave inside my head
Settle with the monks, plant a couple seeds

I, I want that simple life, oh, that simple life
I, I wouldn't mind

If the road gets too dark
I'll smile through the storm
If I hold that heavy heart
I'll tow the line

I could be southbound, singing with cicadas
Maybe have a few kids, wear a wedding band
We could give it some time and meet at our diet bar
Maybe we could fall all over again

I, I want that simple life, oh, that simple life
I, I, I wouldn't mind
