Simplify Songtext
von Leon Bridges

Used to play make believe
On the banks of Trinity
Jump from stone to stone, just my pops and me
Never knew what I found
In that girl from Corpus town
She was my first love
Wonder how she doin now

What if I had loved her
What if I had stayed
What if I never put my money on a chase
I wish that I could go back sometimes
Simplify this life
Simplify this life


We were children on the loose
Collecting scars and the bruises
Crossing railroad tracks just to get to school
Played all day into the night
Had to be back by dinner time
When mama′s voice rang out, we knew it was time

I can smell the gumbo
Every Saturday
Makes me wanna come home when I'm far away
I wish that I could go back sometimes
Simplify this life
Simplify this life

Heaven′s not hard to reach
Baby, all we need is to simplify
Don't know what tomorrow's gon bring
Baby, all we need is to simplify
Travel cross both the land and sea
I see all we need is to simplify
Fall in love when everything leaves
Baby, all I need is to simplify

Simplify this life
Simplify this life
