I’ve been around so long
I’ve cottoned on to what is right
and what is wrong
ask me the question then
ask me how I know I know
I know
it’s the simple things
that mean so much to me
like a walk into the park
like the stars when it is dark
like the things that don’t go wrong
and the way you sing your song
I have some wisdom now
I know the truth
of simple things
and when it’s measured out
it’s just the company of friends
it’s the simple things
that mean so much to me
like the time I spend with you
like us gazing at the moon
like the way you sing your song
and our friends all sing along
I’ve been around so long
I’ve cottoned on to what is right
and what is wrong
ask me the question then
ask me how I know I know
I know
like a day out in the sun
like a song for everyone
like us playing once again
and the way you sing refrain
you sing refrain
you sing refrain
