I've been in search of stones
Making up the pavement
Of less traveled roads
Mining for treasure deep in my bones
That I never found
Went looking for reve rence
Tried to find it in a bottle
& came back again
High on a hashpipe of good intent
But it only brought me down
Tried institutions of the mind and soul
It only taught me what I
Should not know
Oh the answer well
Who would have guessed
Could be something as simple as
This something as simple as this
Verse
Traveled to each oceans end
Saw all 7 wonders
Trying to make some sense
Memorized the mantra confucius said
But it only let me down
Chorus
Tried absolution of the mind and soul
It only led me where I should not go
Oh and the answer well
How could I miss
Something as simple as this
Something as simple as this
Bridge
I been falling crashing breaking
And all the while you were
Stood here waiting
For me girl
Chorus
Tried liberation of my own free will
But it left me looking to get higher still
Oh and the answer well
Who could have guessed
Could be something as simple as this
God knows how I could have missed
Something as simple as this
Making up the pavement
Of less traveled roads
Mining for treasure deep in my bones
That I never found
Went looking for reve rence
Tried to find it in a bottle
& came back again
High on a hashpipe of good intent
But it only brought me down
Tried institutions of the mind and soul
It only taught me what I
Should not know
Oh the answer well

This something as simple as this
