[ti:Simple As This]
[ar:Jake Bugg]
[al:]
[00:00.00] I've been in search of stones
[00:07.99] Making up the pavement of less-travelled roads
[00:12.32] Mining for treasure deep in my bones
[00:16.56] That I never find
[00:22.54] Went looking for reverence
[00:25.55] Tried to find it in a bottle
[00:27.97] And came back again
[00:30.21] High on a hash pipe of good intent
[00:34.26] But it only brought me down
[00:40.97] Tried institutions of the mind and soul
[00:46.99] It only taught me what I should not know
[00:52.99] Oh and the answer well who would have guessed
[00:58.41] Could be something as simple as this
[01:03.86] Something as simple as this
[01:15.12] Travelled to each ocean's end
[01:17.99] Saw all seven wonders, trying to make some sense
[01:22.37] Memorised the mantra Confucius said
[01:26.75] But it only let me down
[01:32.95] Tried absolution of the mind and soul
[01:39.41] It only led me where I should not go
[01:45.60] Oh and the answer well how could I miss
[01:51.75] Something as simple as this
[01:56.84] Something as simple as this
[02:01.49] I've been falling, crashing, breaking
[02:07.14] All the while you were stood here waiting
[02:12.99] For me girl
[02:36.61] Tried liberation of my own free will
[02:41.17] But it left me looking to get higher still
[02:46.33] Oh and the answer well who would have guessed
[02:51.69] Could be something as simple as this
[02:57.01] God knows how I could have missed
[03:02.01] Something as simple as this
