SIMPLE THINGS

They say money can't buy you love They say money can't buy you love They never seem to listen I'm all ears Just copped your girl a brand new Rolex But you can't never find the time to spend at home Thinkin' that's gon' keep her happy When time is all she wanted all along It's the simple things in life we forget You hear her talking but don't hear what she said Why do you make something so easy so complicated Searchin' for what's right in front of your face But you can't see it So you think that you know what's important Steady chasin' your fame and your fortune But you don't know You're chasing a dime, losing a treasure Those dollars don't make sense to me at all It goes Da da da You give her spending money Da da da da But all she wanna spend is time alone (tonight) Keep givin' her The finer things But she don't really need that If you don't stop You're gonna end up alone In the world without love Why would you do it It's the simple things in life we forget You hear her talking but don't hear what she said Why do you make something so easy so complicated Searchin' for what's right in front of your face But you can't see it It's the simple things in life we forget You hear her talking but don't hear what she said Why do you make something so easy so complicated Searchin' for what's right in front of your face But you can't see it Stop tryin' buy her love 'Cause you won't ever have enough There's always someone With more than you You need to pay her attention Give her what she needs Do the simple things Before you lose your girl to me It's the simple things in life we forget You hear her talking but don't hear what she said Why do you make something so easy so complicated Searchin' for what's right in front of your face But you can't see it You better look out I hear you talking but what are you sayin' Don't be a fool You got a good thang Man, are you blind, stupid or crazy You got a good thang You got a good thang If that's your lady You better hold on Give her what she wants Before she moves on Man, I'm telling you cars, clothes and fancy things don't mean a damn thang If you ain't cakin' and bakin', babe It's the simple things in life we forget You hear her talking but don't hear what she said Why do you make something so easy so complicated Searchin' for what's right in front of your face...
