Songs for the Philippines - Simple Things Lyrics
Yeah, uhhThey say money can't buy you loveThey say money can't buy you loveThey never seem to listenI'm all earsJust copped your girl a brand new RolexBut you can never find the time to spend at homeThinkin' it's gon' keep her happyWhen time is all she wanted all along[Chorus]It's the simple things in life we forgetYou hear her talkin' but don't hear what she saidWhy do you make something so easy so complicatedSearching for what's right in front of your faceBut you can't see itSo you think that you know what's importantSteady chasin' your fame and your fortuneBut you don't knowYou're chasing a dime losin' a treasureThose dollars don't make sense to me at allOoh, it goesDuh da duh daYou give her spending moneyDuh da duh daBut all she wanna spend is time alone (tonight)Keep givin' herThe finer things butBut she don't really need thatIf you don't stop you'reYou're gonna end up alone (alone)The world without love (duh duh da duh da)Why would you do it[Chorus x2]It's the simple things in life we forgetYou hear her talkin' but don't hear what she saidWhy do you make something so easy so complicatedSearching for what's right in front of your faceBut you can't see itIt's the simple things in life we forgetYou hear her talkin' but don't hear what she saidWhy do you make something so easy so complicatedSearching for what's right in front of your faceBut you can't see it (listen)Stop tryna buy her love'cuz you won't ever have enoughThere's always someone with more than youYou need to pay her attentionGive her what she needsDo the simple thingsBefore you lose your girl to meYeah yeah yeah yeah yeeahYeeeah yeahPlay on playaYeahYour girl comin' wit' me shorty, hahaI'm tellin' you man'cuz u know[Chorus]It's the simple things in life we forgetYou hear her talkin' but don't hear what she saidWhy do you make something so easy so complicatedSearching for what's right in front of your faceBut you can't see itYou better look outI hear you talkin', i hear you talkin' (ha)But what are you sayingOh hoo oh hoooDon't be a foolYou got a good thingMan are you blindStupid or crazy?You got a good thing (uh)You got a good thingIf that's your ladyYou better hold onAnd give her what she wantBefore she move onMan I tell you cars, clothes, and fancy things don't mean a damn thingIf you ain't kickin it baby[Chorus]It's the simple things in life we forgetYou hear her talkin' but don't hear what she saidWhy do you make something so easy so complicatedSearching for whats right in front of your faceBut you can't see it[Fade]Don't let this be the thing you'll always regret, noIt's right there, it's right there
