Somewhere along the way 
I got caught up in the race 
I kept spinning and turning 
Lost myself my hope my faith 

We're always wanting more than what we have 
And what I've learned is all I really need are... 

The simple things  [bad word] without a price 
The simple things 
Like happiness joy and love in my life 
I've seen it all from so many sides 
And I hope you would agree 
The best things in life 
Are the simple things 

Hey everybody don't get me wrong you got to understand ambition and knowledge 
Are the seeds of every woman and man

The simple things  [bad word] without a price 
The simple things 
Like happiness joy and love in my life 
I've seen it all from so many sides 
And I hope you would agree 
That the best things in life 
Are the simple things 

Solo 

This world moves so fast 
Sometimes you got to slow down, down, down 
To find out what its all about 

We're always wanting more than what we have 
What I've learned, is what I really need a 

The simple things  [bad word] without a price 
The simple things 
Like happiness joy and love in my life 
I've seen it all from so many sides 
And I hope you would agree 
The best things in life 
Are the simple things
