Art Singer Tone - The Simple Things Lyrics

City lights keep burnin' bright, screens glow in every hand
Rushin' through the daily grind, like time's just slippin' sand
But out beyond the highways, where the world still moves so slow
There's a place where peace is callin', but most folks just don't know
Oh, the flowers still bloom where the wild birds sing
The trees still dance in the breath of spring
The deer still hide where the forest runs deep
And the mountains still stand where the rivers weep
If we just slow down, we might realize
That the simple things are the greatest prize
Traffic hums like a restless tune, no one stops to hear the sound
Of a creek just gently talkin' as it runs along the ground
The stars still shine like diamonds bright, up in that endless blue
But we don't take the time no more, to sit and watch the view
Oh, the flowers still bloom where the wild birds sing
The trees still dance in the breath of spring
The deer still hide where the forest runs deep
And the mountains still stand where the rivers weep
If we just slow down, we might realize
That the simple things are the greatest prize
Take a walk down a gravel road, let the sunset paint the sky
Feel the wind like an old friend, whisperin' soft and kind
Ain't no fortune, ain't no fame, that could ever take the place
Of a life that finds its beauty in the quiet and the grace
Oh, the flowers still bloom where the wild birds sing
The trees still dance in the breath of spring
The deer still hide where the forest runs deep
And the mountains still stand where the rivers weep
If we just slow down, we might realize
That the simple things are the greatest prize
So turn down the noise, step into the light
And see the world with brand-new sight
The simple things will never fade
If we remember the life they made
