Lyrics Tim Curry - Simplicity

I try every way I know to tell you
I run down all my clever ways
Every smart forever phrase
How am I going get a, heck of another love letter
But you deserve better babe
The hardest thing for me
Is true simplicity
But it's the only thing that's good enough for you

Every day I wake up later
I'm afraid to face the sun
I want to hide from everyone
Memory is bitter
Tell myself I'm no quitter
But the gold no longer glitters babe
The hardest thing for me
Is true simplicity
But it's the only thing that's good enough for you

Blood in a bucket
No rhyme, mainline, sunshine
And it's the nearest this boy's been to joy
And I do believe
I shall believe
I shall be free
On the day you say you need me
Need me, need me, yeah

I push the doorknob to the booze
I might try out for the blues
Aching and lonely
What does it take to telephone me
I'm much too close to breaking
But I do believe
I shall believe
I shall be free
On the day you say you need me
Need me, need me, yeah
Yeah, yeah

The hardest thing for me
Is true simplicity
It's the only thing that's good enough for you
