Pure & Simple
(j. van zant, e. king, r. johnson, m. lunn)
I used to live in a poor neighborhood
My friends and me we always had a time
Never had no money but we had it so good
Those days are gone and i wanna go back
So pure so simple
Never thought about it when you're young you don't care
You don't realize it 'till it's all behind
Take it for granted just not well
(chorus)
Oh-oh it was pure and simple
I'll remember those days 'till the end
Oh-oh god knows it's simple
If i could live my life all over again
I'd keep it pure and simple
Those days are gone and i wanna go back
Got me a feelin' i'm not alone
Wish i had a road so i could go back home
(repeat chorus twice)

Going Back
(barkam/adams)
I wanna go back to those sweet and simple days
Goin back to that cheerful little place
Goin back, back through time
Back through space, goin back
Do you remember when we had such fun
Playing all those happy games in the sun
We didnt have too much to think about
All our problems had a way of working out
I wanna go back to those sweet and simple days
Goin back to that cheerful little place
Goin back, back through time
Back through space, goin back
Skipping through the park and holding hands
We were building castles in the sand
Everything was rosy way back then
Oh, come on, lets make it happen again
I wanna go back to those sweet and simple days
Goin back to that cheerful little place
Goin back, back through time
Back through space, goin back

Fundamental of Liar Chapter LXX: Good Vs Bad
Good is always in simple mind, bad always thinks how to trick
Good is always in simple way, bad always finds the escape
Good is always in simple manner, bad always fakes to cheat
Good is always in simple purpose, bad always has a catch
Good is always in simple reason, bad always uses layered lies
Good is always in simple trust, bad always changes the side
Good is always in simple life, bad always watches his back
Good is always in simple word, bad always talks complicated
Good is always in simple fun, bad always tired to understand
Good is always in simple hope, bad always tries to control the world
Good is always in simple choice, bad always looks what’s the point
Good is always in simple act, bad always counts the advantage
Good is always in simple thing, bad always exaggerates what have been

Of Mice And Men
The fire burns on
and all that drives me on
till all is gone except
the simple plans of mice and men
Back when I was just 17
I thought that I knew everything
I could make it in this scene
To be a rising star that only gleamed
When all the answers disagreed
With the questions held for me
I was legal now at 21
I knew the way the world should run
My God, just look what I had done
Simply drunk and having fun
Looked for friends but I found none
All alone at 21
The fire burns on
and all that drives me on
till all is gone except
the simple plans of mice and men
At 25 I was suprised
That I was even half alive
somehow I managed to survive
I found my bodys' doing time
In my back a hundred knives
All from my friends at 25
And now as Gabriel sounds my warning bell
I'd buy your life if you would sell
and you would too if less compelled
So live your life and live it well
Theres not much left of me to tell
I just got back up each time I fell
The fire burns on
and all that drives me on
till all is gone except
the simple plans of mice and men
The fire burns on
and all that drives me on
till all is gone except
the simple plans of mice and men

Simple As That
I know it isnt easy to refuse
A lot of thoughts are flying thru your head
Tell me this before you have to choose
Would you rather be alive or dead?
Its as simple as that
Would you rather be alive or dead
Its as simple as that, its so simple
It makes you wanna cry
They ask you if you wanna join in
You linger for a minute or so
Well nows a perfect time to begin
Are you gonna say yes or no?
Its as simple as that
Are you gonna say yes or no?
If s as simple as that, its so simple
It makes you wanna cry
And if you love your life
Everybody will love you too
Yes if you love your life
Everybody will love you too
Its harder when you start to get round
I want you to remember what I said
I know you never like to let them down
But would you rather be alive or dead?
Its as simple as that
Would you rather be alive or dead?
Its as simple as that, if s so simple
It makes me wanna cry
Yes if you love your life
Everybody will love you too
And if you love your life
Everybody will love you too
Would you rather be alive or dead?
Would you rather be alive or dead?
Would you?
Its as simple as that
Its as simple as that
Its as simple as that
And if you love your life
Everybody will love you too
Yes if you love your life
Everybody will love you too

I Dont Wanna
Ooh,yeah,yeah,oh,oh,yeah
Chorus:
I dont wanna be
(be without you, be without you)
I dont wanna live
(live without you, live without you)
I dont wanna go
(go without you, go without you)
I dont wanna be alone
Verse1:
When we hooked up
We sat down
Made an agreement
We vowed that
That wed always be together
Through whatever
We said that no one ever would
Get between us
So love will never ever leave us
That was a while ago,oh
But now lately
It feels like
I mean I feel like
All we do is fight
Every single night
Cant make it tight
Cant get it right
I just wanna go back
Take it way back
All the way back
Can we start again?
Do it over?
Can we straighten it out?
Can we work it out?
Chorus 2x:
I dont wanna be

I dont wanna be alone

Do you realize
I cant sleep without you
Think without you
Eat without you
Speak without you
Be without you,i cant even breathe without you
I cant feel without you, deal without you
Spend without you

Dont wanna go out
Cause I cant ride without you
Feel like Im goin die without you
What is a girl supposed to do?
When I spend my last time to be in your life
I dont wanna be without you
Chorus:
I dont wanna be

Said I cant live

I dont wanna go go
(go without you, go without you)
Said I dont wanna, be alone

How can this be?
That its not working out
(that its not working out)
We vowed

That we dont talk no more

Where did we go wrong?
We both made mistakes
We gotta carry on)

Love Is Not Enough
(Jo Dee Messina/Mike Reid)
Sometimes I have to tell myself to keep on breathing
My heart is not believing you're gone
I try hard to remind myself time will do the healing
'Cause right now I'm not feeling all that strong
Everything's a memory
And they're taunting me
Just one simple thing
And I'll break down and cry
Chorus:
Why I wanna scream it's just not fair
Pray to god I didn't care
I wanna turn back time
Turn back time and have you here with me
I want to find someone to blame
But sometimes life gets in the way
And it doesn't care how much we love
'Cause sometimes love is just not enough
Oh we took a chance we gave it all we had and couldn't make it
It didn't work for all the times we tried
No matter how we loved, it seemed the odds were stacked against us
Now we have to live our separate lives
Well I'm not ready yet
Too much to forget
Oh it still feels like
A part of me is dying
Repeat chorus
Sometimes love is just not
How come love is just not
Enough

Prostye Dvizheniya
I continue simple moves
You continue my continuations
I am you, and you are me
I repeat, you repeat.
If you want -be silent,
Wait until it stops.
If you want keys,
2 turns around
If you want yours,
If you want somebody's,
If you want be like me
And I continue
Simple moves, I continue...
Simple moves..
We continue simple moves
Destroying irrigation.
Somewhere you find,
Somewhere you lose
I repeat, you repeat.
This is love,
Springs are jumping.
Tomorrow everyone
Can be smaller then snowflake.
We have to be on time
Not refusing.
We should be able
Continue to live.
Simple moves, continuing to live...
Simple moves...
Where are you?
Where are you?
Where are you?
Where are you?
Where are you?
Where are you?
Where are you?
Where are you?
Where are you?
Simple moves...

Back In The Day
Hook
You were just a boy
And I was just a girl in love
Cabangas was a toy
And the rubics cube made life seem tough
Truth or dare was a game
All your crew would dress the same to
School each day
I remember when oh do you remember when
Back in the day, back in the day.
Verse i
Life was so simple back then
Double dutch and talking junk
Was what we did
Hangin outside with my friends
Till the street lamp said
Its time to come in (sometimes I)
B-sec
Long for the days
No work and all play
Long for the times
Innocently blind
Verse ii
Life was so simple back then
Quarter waters when were thirsty
Gave the quench
We were so easy to please
Candy necklaces and rings
Were to us the finer things
Verse iii
Life was so simple it seemed
Rockin kangols w/adidas and lee jeans
Nameplates and 4 finger rings
Jelly sandals for your feet
Mr. softee made life sweet
How I long
Bridge
New edition sang to me
Ronnie, bobby, johnny, ricky and mike

Thats what I remember
Loving you came easily
First time we ever kissed goodnite
Do you remember?

The Days Of Our Lives
Free are the simple days
that bring you no care.
Imprisoned are the hard days
that are difficult to bear.
But bare them we must
and keep hopes high
so none of them
will let hope die.
Ecstatic are the beauteous days
that spring forth with joy.
Hapless are the colorless days
that appear and then destroy
the freedom that
you thought was yours
because it came
and closed the doors
on the simple days
that were with you,
because you believed
they'd never be through.

In The Good Old Days
We'd get up before sun-up to get the work done up
We'd work in the fields till the sun had gone down
We've stood and we've cried as we have bristly watched
A hailstorm a' beatin' our crops to the ground
We've gone to bed hungry many nights in the past
In the good old days when times were bad
Chorus:
No amount of money could buy from me
The memories that i have of then
No amount of money could pay me
To go back and live through it again
I've seen daddy's hands break open and bleed
And i've seen him work till he's stiff as a board
An' i've seen momma layin' in suffer and sickness
In need of a doctor we couldn't afford
Anything at all was more than we had
In the good old days when times were bad
We've got up before and found ice on the floor
Where the wind would blow snow through the cracks in the wall
And i couldn't enjoy then, havin' a boyfriend
I had nothing decent to wear at all
So i long for a love that i never had
In the good old days when times were bad
Repeat chorus

Simple
(In memoriam our singer Madalina Manole who died yesterday after she committed suicide.)
If she would die
Simple
Being only
Profoundly devastated
By grieve
Perhaps nobody
Would have understood
What really happened to her.
But she didn't die so simple.
He died for ever
For everyone to understand
The reason why
The pure and simple truth
Is rarely pure
And never simple.
In this world
Perceived through our senses.
We are nonexistent
Without our soul.
And the world makes no sense
Any longer.
Tears do not fall,
Leaves do not wither,
Flowers do not bloom
Ever.
Simple
They disappear
Being destroyed
In their self-esteem.

I Wanna Be Free
All my life
I've followed signs
On many a road
Tried to find
What was right
And do what I'm told
But sometimes
You cross the line
And never can go back home
I've been here
And I've been there
Always on the go
Looking for
Something more
To call my own
Up to now
I have found
That life as a whole was cold
'Cause I've never belonged
[Chorus:]
I wanna be free
And live without warning
I wanna finally see
What it's like on the other side
I wanna be free
'Cause a new day is dawning
I wanna be me
I wanna show the world I'm alive
Who's to say
I need change
And I am not what I'm not
Look at me
And what you see
Has been through alot
Now it's time
For me to find
What love's really all about
And all that I've lived without
[Repeat Chorus]

I Wanna Go Back There
Theres a place in my mind thats suspended in time
When we were happy in love
Days warm and sweet, and the night so complete
Then life was perfect for us
It was just you and i, only love in our eyes
Not a sign of a tear on our face
No sorrow, no pain, only sunshine, no rain
Before something else took its place
Oh, I wanna go back there
Back to the time there was no doubt you cared
Back to the time love was tender and fair
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back there
Doop-do-do-do, doop-do-do-do-do
I wanna go back there
Doop-do-do-do, doop-do-do-do-do
I wanna go back there
Do you think if we tried we could put life aside
And see if we might make it back
I know in my heart what we had at the start
I believe it could still be like that
Oh, I wanna go back there
Away from these heartaches, these worried and cares
Back to the time love was tender and fair
I wanna go back there, I wanna go back there
Doop-do-do-do, doop-do-do-do-do
I wanna go back there (say you care)
I wanna go back, I wanna go back
I wanna go back there
Doop-do-do-do, doop-do-do-do-do

It's Just That Simple
There's a whole lot of money that you gave me
I'd gladly empty my pockets right now
You'd parlay all that by triple
It's just that simple
Those days I'd gladly walk so long for you,
Although it seemed I crawled most of the way
After some time I felt like a cripple
It's just that simple
Last week I was thinking about traveling by land,
And the time you remember we were by the lake
It wasn't even like we made a ripple
It's just that simple
In my head, the time didn't make a ripple
It's just that simple

song - Back To Galloway
Back to Galloway
If you’ll come with me, I’ll go back
To where the River Luce falls blue
Through glens of Hazel to the sea
Where my heart lies and yours lies too
If you’ll go with me, I’ll go too
To sit and watch the Fulmars soar
Beyond the cliff towards the sun
Beyond the horn that roars no more
If you’ll come with me, I won’t wait
The Lost Road reaches all the way
Through all we’ve known, through all we’ve shared
And we must walk that way again
(chorus)
We’re going back to Galloway
Back to the simple life we knew
When we were young and love was true
We’re going home to Galloway
If you went with me, I would stay
Amongst her cliffs and glens so free
Or walk the sands of Ardwell Bay
Until the sun sets over me
If you’ll stay with me, I won’t leave
I dream that some day we might share
A humble cottage by the sea
Where we can sit and watch the waves
If you could come, I know you would
To walk beneath the stars we knew
To see the sights we loved back then
When we were young and love was true
(chorus)
I’m going back to Galloway
Back to the simple life we knew
I’m going back to Galloway
I’m going home to wait for you

So Innocent and pure
A babies simple smile
All my Sadness it can cure
A babies simple smile
Incapable of fraud
A babies simple smile
This leaves me feeling awed
A babies simple smile
This fills my world with light
A babies simple smile
Oh how I love the sight
A babies simple smile
It’s a blessing I am sure
