Simpler Times
Verse 1
She's just a girl and he's just a man. A man with a narrow mind and calloused hands. His matter are only a few and her stress is weighing down. She can only cry on a cue because he won't let her frown.
Chorus
Cause robins sing and children bring new life to what we see. And no one made you drink your beer or told you not to breathe. Let's go back to a simpler time.
Verse 2
It's common there, but new to me. It's not that easy to let her be. People look but I'm the only one who watches. You can read her story through her hazel gray blotches.
Chorus
Verse 3
He will learn what she already has, accept that difference isn't bad. Every time he raised his voice it cut her thickened skin, and even the hardest, calloused mind, will change from what's within.
