Simple Man Songtext
von Jerusalem

When I started out in life
I was just a simple man
But now with my life in torment
Catch me smiling, if you can
Suddenly a face appears
A body smooth and warm
With love she melts my aching heart
We make love ′til the dawn

Take her picture
Out into the light
Have you seen a
More impressive sight
Let me know if
You've seen her around
I′m getting tired
'Cause she can't be found


You won′t love me again
I start pleading in vain
You don′t know how to love
I, I know well enough
When you find a girl
Treat her like a pearl
Be careful what you do
She may well fool you

So when I started out in life
Although I could not smile
I was happy deep down inside
Contented all the while
Until I met a woman
Who lit the fire of pain
She left me searching for her love
But I won't see her again

Take her picture
Out into the light
Have you seen a
More impressive sight
Let me know if
You′ve seen her around
I'm getting tired
′Cause she can't be found
