Take my hand, lead me up into the promised land
I will follow you, but I'm no man
For trophies, pageants, and the big band stand
I make myself a little smaller and I'm comfortable as a flower
On the wall
I know that you want to be remembered
I don't want to spend my whole life
Visible Venus on a Sunday night
Building a legacy to leave behind
I'm just happy with the simple life
Ooo-ooh, I'm simple and you are complicated
And what we need is a life we can agree on
Ooo-ohh, I'm easy and you are difficult
And it's been so hard to find a life we can agree on
I lower my face, hide my treasures
And I tolerate social graces
I drop my gaze, politician in a rebel state
I don't want to spend my whole life
Visible Venus on a Sunday night
Building a legacy to leave behind
I'm just happy with the simple life
Ooo-ooh, I'm simple and you are complicated
And what we need is a life we can agree on
Ooo-ohh, I'm easy and you are difficult
And it's been so hard to find a life we can agree on
And when I sleep at night I see
Us on our porch, us old and gray
We reminisce at night and hold
Each other, like our younger days
Ooo-ooh, I'm simple and you are complicated
And what we need is a life we can agree on
Ooo-ohh, I'm easy and you are difficult
And it's been so hard to find a life we can agree on
