Hey, time won't wait, life goes by
Every day's a brand new sky
Every tear comes to dry
All that really matters in this crazy world
Is you and I together baby, just remember

The first leaves off the tree, the way you look at me
A thousand chiming church bells ring, the simple things are free
The sun, the moon, the stars, the beating of two hearts
How I love the simple things, the simple things just are

So here we go, let's just dance
Teach my soul to take this chance
Put my heart in your hands
Out of all the moments that we leave behind
Turn around and tell me baby, we'll remember

The thunder and the rain, the way you say my name
After all the clouds go by, the simple things remain
The sun, the moon, the stars, the beating of two hearts
How I love the simple things, the simple things just are

Oh, the ocean and the sky, the way we feel tonight
I know that it's the love that brings the simple things to life
The sun, the moon, the stars, the beating of two hearts
I love the way the simple things, the simple things just are
I love the way the simple things, the simple things just are
The simple things just are
The simple things just are
