I Prefer
I prefer walking rather than
Running down the street
I prefer smiling rather than frowning
At the people I might need
If it were up to you
Would you look at it the same?
The same way that I do
Or would you close your eyes
And have no voice of opinion
Of what lies before you? Shame on you
'Cause I say, woah, something's gotta give
I need a simpler life to live
Woah, look into yourself
You best find a better way to measure wealth
'Cause I say, a simple life for a simple race
Beneath the stars is where we find our place
It's a simple love I'm gonna spread your way
It's a simple life just living it day to day
I prefer climbing rather than falling from a tree
I prefer singing rather than whispering silently
If it were up to you, would you look at it the same?
The same way that I do
Or would You close your eyes
And have no voice of opinion
Of what lies before you? Shame on you
'Cause I say, woah, something's gotta give
I need a simpler life to live
Woah, look into yourself
You best find a better way to measure wealth
It's a simple life for a simple race
Beneath the stars is where we find our place
It's a simple love I wanna spread your way
It's a simple life, just living it day to day
I prefer helping rather than acting helplessly
I prefer living, ain't that the way, ain't that the way it's supposed to be?
If it were up to you, would you look at it the same?
The same way that I do
Or would you close your eyes
And have no voice of opinion
Of what lies before you? Shame on you
'Cause I say, woah, something's gotta give
I need a simpler life to live
Woah, look into yourself
You best find a better way to measure wealth
'Cause I say, yeah, it's a simple life for a simple race
Beneath the stars is where we find our place
It's a simple love I'm gonna spread your way
It's a simple life, just living it day to day
It's a simple love I'm gonna spread around
It's a feeling of elation you could put me down
It's a simple world gonna make a stand
It's a simple life, just living it the best we can
Just living it the best we can, oh
Running down the street
I prefer smiling rather than frowning
At the people I might need
If it were up to you
Would you look at it the same?
The same way that I do
Or would you close your eyes
And have no voice of opinion
Of what lies before you? Shame on you
'Cause I say, woah, something's gotta give
I need a simpler life to live
Woah, look into yourself
You best find a better way to measure wealth
'Cause I say, a simple life for a simple race
Beneath the stars is where we find our place
It's a simple love I'm gonna spread your way
It's a simple life just living it day to day
I prefer climbing rather than falling from a tree
I prefer singing rather than whispering silently
If it were up to you, would you look at it the same?
The same way that I do
Or would You close your eyes
And have no voice of opinion
Of what lies before you? Shame on you
'Cause I say, woah, something's gotta give
I need a simpler life to live
Woah, look into yourself
You best find a better way to measure wealth
It's a simple life for a simple race
Beneath the stars is where we find our place
It's a simple love I wanna spread your way
It's a simple life, just living it day to day
I prefer helping rather than acting helplessly
I prefer living, ain't that the way, ain't that the way it's supposed to be?
If it were up to you, would you look at it the same?

It's a simple life, just living it day to day
It's a simple love I'm gonna spread around
It's a feeling of elation you could put me down
It's a simple world gonna make a stand
It's a simple life, just living it the best we can
Just living it the best we can, oh
