The Simple Things
Urma Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can't get no sleep...
I miss the colors in my dreams
I stare at my bed....
And all I see is just an abandoned dream...

And I miss...The simple things

Can't get no rest...
I miss you hiding at my chest
I miss the little hand...
Drawing silent circles on my fainth...

And I miss...The simple things

Can't get no joy...
I miss you as my favourite toy
I miss the touch...the smile
And the nights when I said "hello I'm alive..."





And I miss...The simple things

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Urma's song "The Simple Things" express feelings of loneliness, restlessness, and nostalgia for the small things that used to bring joy and comfort. The singer is unable to sleep and when she looks at her bed, she only sees her lost dreams, vivid colors that she used to see when she sleeps. She longs for the simple things that she used to share with someone she loves dearly, like cuddling or having her partner's hand drawing circles on her skin. The lyrics show that these small actions are important symbols of love and affection that can make us feel happy and fulfilled.


The song taps into universal emotions that everyone can relate to. It's about those little moments of daily life that can mean so much to us, and how they can be missed when they are gone. The lyrics express the singer's desire to have those moments back and to feel complete again. The simple things represent an ideal that we all aspire to – a life that is free from complications and worries. In a way, it’s a call for us to appreciate the happiness that we have in front of us instead of seeking for things that we don't have.
