I walked across an empty land I knew the pathway like the back of my hand I felt the earth beneath my feet Sat by the river and it made me complete Oh, simple thing, where have you gone? I'm getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you can let me in I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin I came across a fallen tree I felt the branches of them looking at me Is this the place we used to love? Is this the place that we've been dreaming of? Oh, simple thing, where have you gone? I'm getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you're gonna let me in I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin And if you have a minute, why don't we go Talk about it somewhere, won't let me know This could be the end of everything So why don't we go somewhere, won't let me know Somewhere, won't let me know Oh, simple thing, where have you gone? I'm getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you're gonna let me in I'm getting old and I need somewhere to begin And if you have a minute, why don't we go Talk about it somewhere, won't let me know This could be the end of everything So why don't we go somewhere, won't let me know Oh, oh, oh This could be the end of everything So why don't we go somewhere, won't let me know Somewhere, won't let me know Somewhere, won't let me know
