In a Simple Rhyme

Well, back in the past when I was treated so coldly,

my love life was a darn disgrace.

Needed someone to love and hold me.

That's one of the reasons that I was out of place.

So this is love! Well, she finally kissed me.

Had me all worked up inside.

I was in love, but Cupid missed me.

She up and left, and I almost died.

But I was young and I was far from lonely.

I been that way for a long, long year.

Needed a girl to call my one and only.

Is that you?

You think you got the int'rest.

C'mon and take the time.

'Cause you know I wanna be

yours in a simple rhyme.

Well, ain't life grand when you finally hit it?

I'm always a sucker for a real good time.

Woke up in life to find I almost missed it.

But I was young and I was far too crazy.

Been that way for a long, long time.

Needed a girl, but I was just too lazy.

Now that I've found you:

You think you got the int'rest.

C'mon and take the time.

I'm gonna be

yours in a simple

rhyme,

She made her mountains sing.

Birds against an icy sky.

And I heard bells ringin'

I think I heard an angel sigh. And she said:

There'll be times,

there will be times

you're gonna hear the angels singin'

"Ah.

Ah.

Ah."

You think you got the int'rest.

C'mon and take the time.

I'm gonna be

yours in a simple

rhyme,
