11.Simple Words
He found a simple way to express himself; he explained it in a
note And then he settled down to excuse himself with the simple
words he wrote. And when he came around he was lying down in a
bed that's not his own And as the doctor signed his bill of
health these were the words the doctor spoke. He said 'this,
this is your life and you can either make the most of what you
have or you Can throw it all away, but there are people here
who'd give anything just to live another day' And the patient
cried, the doctor sighed as he turned and walked away, And he
left the patient lying there in the lonely bed he made.
Somewhere something went missing Still-life static and distant
Steadily losing its feeling stale eyes stare at the ceiling Too
much to say with simple words He found a simple way to express
himself and he wrote it in a song About a better world than the
one we have and the path that seems so long It's just another
way to find the words to say that the hopeless days are gone And
that you take this life and make the most of it and find a
meaning all your own. This, this is your life; you can accept it
or change it if you just make up your mind. Somewhere something
went missing Still-life static and distant Steadily losing its
feeling stale eyes stare at the ceiling Too much to say with
simple words You found yourself; your sight is clearing The veil
is gone. You stand alone.
