Simple Pleasures
A long way
Away
From mansions and money
Bales of hay
Clothes that sway
Simple pleasures every day
I was told that I could be something more
Something better than before
I thought it meant power, wealth and fame
To strike admiration and awe with nothing but my name
I had all that and I lost it all
Into an abyss from where I heard a call
Now the land and soil has become my gold
Simple pleasures that cannot be sold
A long way
Away
From mansions and money
Bales of hay
Clothes that sway
Simple pleasures every day
A long way
Away
From mansions and money
Bales of hay
Clothes that sway
Simple pleasures every day
