A Simple Life Songtext
von Philip Selway

Above the traffic noise and fights
Can you hear me
I′m standing right next to you
As the crowds pour out on a cold cold night
There's a place we can go
There′s a place where we both can hide

And we'll stay quite still
We won't make a sound
We′ll turn out the lights
We′ll turn out the lights

Then we'll leave and disappear
Into the night
We′ll turn out the lights
We just want a simple life
We'll turn out the lights
Please turn out the lights


On down the road we walk along
Can you see me
I′m scared that I'm losing you
As the crowds press on through the cold cold night

There′s a place we can go
There's a place where we both can hide

And we'll stay quite still
We won′t make a sound
We′ll turn out the lights
We'll turn out the lights

Then we′ll leave and disappear
Into the night
We'll turn out the lights
We just want a simple life
We′ll turn out the lights
Please turn out the lights


And all the vows we made
I'd make them all again
I gave my promise and the life we have is sacred
I wouldn′t lie to you
I could not lie to you
Tonight we'll leave the noise behind
So turn out the lights
Please turn out the lights
