Simple Things

I hunger for your touch and lonely time. And as time goes by so slowly I know time can do
so much so will you be mine? I see the questions in your eyes; I know what's weighing on
your mind. You can be sure I know my heart because I'll stand beside you through the
years. You'll only have to cry those happy tears and even though I may make mistakes I'll
never break your heart. I swear by the moon and the stars in the sky like the shadow
that’s by your side, I'll be there For better or worse, till death do us part and I'll
love you with every beat of my heart. I'll give you everything I can and I'll build your
dreams with these two hands. We'll hang some memories on the walls, and when it’s just the
two of us are there you won't have to ask if I still care, because as  time turns the
page, my love won't age at all. I swear by the moon and the stars in the sky like the
shadow that’s by your side that saying I love you is not the only words I want to hear
from you If you only knew just how easy it would be to show me how you feel. The simple
things are all you have to do to make it real. What would you do if my heart was torn in
two? Simple things to show you feel that your love for me is real. What would you say if I
took those words away? Then you couldn't make things new Just by saying I love you it’s
the simple things I care about. Now I've tried to talk to you and make you understand, all
you have to do is close your eyes, reach out your hands and touch me. Hold me close and
don't ever let me go. It’s just the simple things that I ever needed from you to show me
just how much you care. The simple things are all I need.
