Simple Man & Waking Up Alone

I am a simple man And I sing a simple song Never been so much in love I never hurt so bad At the same time I am a simple man And I play a simple tune Wish I could see you Once again across me Like the first time Just wanna hold you Don't want to hold you down Hear what you're saying And you're spinning my head around I can make it I know The ending of the tale Is the singing of this song Make me proud to be your man Only you can make me strong Like the last time Just wanna hold you Don't want to hold you down Hear what you're saying And you're spinning my head around I can make it I know. I took my chances on a one-way ticket home Growing tired of strangers and the kind of life I want For the time for settling down has come at last Yes I hope to find a future in my past Walk with me darling Where the wheat fields used to be And I will tell you stories of my time across the sea You're the legendary girl I left behind Can't begin to count the times you crossed my mind Though your children The youngest looks just like you She's the picture of her mother But there'll never be another quite like you You're the angel and the time I don't know anymore so goodnight I'll take my memories to bed and know That I'll be waking up alone I should have noticed That the years were slipping by Still you're just as loving As the day we said goodbye Like an old familiar poem That still won't rhyme I could get back to the place But not the time You're the angel and the time I don't know anymore so goodnight I'll take my memories to bed and know That I'll be waking up alone.
