Simple Words - Lynn Anderson

You can buy a box of candy on each birthday

Send a dozen roses every anniversary

But gifts are in the race and nothing takes the place

Of a kiss and simple words like I love you

You can take my part when all the world’s against me

Take my hand and lead me safely through

But the thing I need the most is real to hold me close

And say some simple words like I love you

Simple words the kind that keeps through life and rightful years

Simple words the kind of woman always needs but seldom hears

So if you care to giv the best remmber I’m the most impressed

By sweet and simple words like I love you

Just say some simple words like I love you
