Van Morrison - Keep It Simple

活在当下 制作

They mocked me when I was singing the songs

Trying to get back to something more simple than we have

They mocked me 'cos I told it like it was

Wrote about disappointment and greed

Wrote about what we really didn't need in our lives

Make us feel alive and whole

Illusions and pipe dreams on the one hand

And straight reality is always cold

Saying something hard edged is off the wall

And it might seem too bold

Mocked me when it got out of hand

Nobody tried to understand

Now we got to keep it simple and that's that

Illusions and pipe dreams on the one hand

And straight reality is always cold

Saying something hard edged is off the wall

And it just might be too bold

Well I'm down here on the running board

Where I've been many times before

But we got to keep it simple to save ourselves

Mocked me when I tried to get back

Said the train was completely off the track

And we got to get back to something simple to save ourselves

Whoa we got to get back to something simple just to save yourselves

Well got to get back to something simple just to save yourselves

Well you got to keep it simple, keep it simple just to - and that's that

Whoa you got to keep it simple nowadays and that's just that

Whoa you got to keep it simple nowadays and that's just the way it is

And you got to keep it simple these days 'cos that's the way it is

Well you got to keep it, keep it simple and that's that
