Simple Man - Klaus Nomi

I’m… just a simple man

I have to do the simple things

That a simple man… can

You… are holding out your hand

You want to know the simple things

In my simple plan… and

I know there’s so much to share

But what else can I do?

Yes, I’m a simple man!

Come now and take my hand

Now and forever, never to be lonely

Yes, I’m a simple man!

I do the best I can

Now and together, just remember only

That I’m a simple man

Love… is just a simple thought

A little bit the worse for wear

Like a thief who got caught

Hope… is just a thing you bought

It’s just another safe white lie

That everybody got… taught

I can see you look to me

So what else can I do?

(repeat chorus)

I do the best I can

I got a simple, simple plan

I hope you understand

I’m just a simple man

I’m holding out my hand

It’s such a simple, simple plan

I hope you understand

(repeat chorus)

It’s so simple…
