Pure & Simple
laseplov Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Woke up this morning
To find I was still asleep
Cause your hopes and dreams
Were never mine to keep
I tried my best, no I really did
And it breaks my heart that I always hid
Away the pain I felt each day
And we both know it's finally time that I say

I need a little bit o' lovin'
And quite a lot of me
I should be takin' the time
So I can discover
Who I wanna be
Thank you for your lovin'
And all the memories
But now it's time to
Say goodbye and
Say hello to me

I was looking around
But only found closed doors
Yet I found a window
Answer clear and simple
Light flows through and poured
The sun on my skin
Cause I found a way in
Yet I'm still unsure
Cause I know in my mind
I must leave you behind
And for myself provide

A little bit o' lovin'
And quite a lot of me
I've been takin' the time
So I can discover
Who I wanna be (Who I wanna be, yeah)
So I thank you for your lovin'
And all the memories
But now it's time to
Say goodbye and




Say hello to me
Say hello to me
