You walked the line all your life. You never thought you'd have to change it. You're always there to give advice. You never thought you'd have to take it.
I want a simple life, like my mother. One true love for my older years. I dont want your wars to take my children. I want a simple life while Im here.
(chorus). I want a simple life. Like my mother. One true love for my older years. I don't want your wars. To take my children. I want a simple lifewhile I'm here.
