She's not an angel sent from up above and I am not a hunk a hunk of burning love
We're just two people trying to make it through this life
There's no such thing as free for everything we have we've paid the price
We take each day just a minute at a time we muddle through but it can be an uphill climb
We work together at the problems in our way
Get them behind us then we clear a path to face another day
But if you feel you need to read between the lines
Don't take too long because you're only wasting time
There's nothing hidden here demonic or sublime
It's just a simple tune based upon a simple life and time
We carry scars from the battles that we've won we're undefeated cause we've never turned and run
The wounds have healed and we are stronger than before
We're gonna need it just to face the things I know still lie in store
But if you feel you need to read between the lines
Don't take too long because you're only wasting time
Don't play it backwards cause there's nothing here to find
It's just a simple tune based upon a simple life and time
I must confess that I'm inclined to ramble on I dwell too much upon the days already gone
Our situation isn't really nothing new
When it comes down to it the bottom line is hey I'm just like you
But if you feel you need to read between the lines
Don't take too long because you're only wasting time
There's nothing hidden here demonic or sublime
It's just a simple tune just a simple tune It's just a simple tune just a simple tune
It's just a simple tune based upon a simple life and time
