Simple Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I get hard to fall in love with, it's destructive
Unbecoming of someone you fell in love with
You wake up impatient, I don't say shit
I just bottle up the side of me that hates it
When did everything become so complicated?
Why does everything become a conversation?
It happens way too often, we keep talking
And don't think about what our decisions costing
[Chorus]
But though I smoke too much, drink just a little
You do too when we're caught in the middle
Of our love gone wrong, but evеn if it'll
Take some time, wе'll get back to when it was so simple
[Post-Chorus]
Mm-hmm
We'll get back to when it was simple
Mm-hmm
[Verse 2]
Now maybe things are changing, rearranging
It's been a minute since we both have felt the same here
It doesn't mean we're love-lost, we're just aren't us
I don't worry that we won't find what it once was
I get hard to fall in love with, it's destructive
Unbecoming of someone you fell in love with
You wake up impatient, I don't say shit
I just bottle up the side of me that hates it
When did everything become so complicated?
Why does everything become a conversation?
It happens way too often, we keep talking
And don't think about what our decisions costing
[Chorus]
But though I smoke too much, drink just a little
You do too when we're caught in the middle
Of our love gone wrong, but evеn if it'll
Take some time, wе'll get back to when it was so simple
[Post-Chorus]
Mm-hmm
We'll get back to when it was simple
Mm-hmm
[Verse 2]
Now maybe things are changing, rearranging
It's been a minute since we both have felt the same here
It doesn't mean we're love-lost, we're just aren't us
I don't worry that we won't find what it once was
[Chorus]
But though I smoke too much, drink just a little
You do too when we're caught in the middle
Of our love gone wrong, but even if it'll
Take some time, we'll get back to when it was
Like a rolling stone, the great unknown
Our fingertips barely holding on (Holding on)
But if it's what we want, even if it'll
Take some time, we'll get back to when it was so simple
[Post-Chorus]
Mm-hmm
We'll get back to when it was simple
Mm-hmm, yeah-yeah
[Bridge]
If our love is our garden
It grows while we guard it
Not all that we wanted
But we got it, we got it
If our love is our garden
It grows while we guard it
Not all that we wanted
But we got it, we got it
[Chorus]
But though I smoke too much, drink just a little
You do too when we're caught in the middle
Of our love gone wrong, but even if it'll
Take some time, we'll get back to when it was
Like a rolling stone, the great unknown
Our fingertips barely holding on (Holding on)
But if it's what we want, even if it'll
Take some time, we'll get back to when it was so simple
But though I smoke too much, drink just a little
You do too when we're caught in the middle
Of our love gone wrong, but even if it'll
Take some time, we'll get back to when it was
Like a rolling stone, the great unknown
Our fingertips barely holding on (Holding on)
But if it's what we want, even if it'll
Take some time, we'll get back to when it was so simple
[Post-Chorus]
Mm-hmm
We'll get back to when it was simple
Mm-hmm, yeah-yeah
[Bridge]
If our love is our garden
It grows while we guard it
Not all that we wanted
But we got it, we got it
If our love is our garden
It grows while we guard it
Not all that we wanted
But we got it, we got it
[Chorus]
But though I smoke too much, drink just a little
You do too when we're caught in the middle
Of our love gone wrong, but even if it'll
Take some time, we'll get back to when it was
Like a rolling stone, the great unknown
Our fingertips barely holding on (Holding on)
But if it's what we want, even if it'll
Take some time, we'll get back to when it was so simple
[Outro]
(We'll get back to when it was simple, so simple)
Yeah, yeah (We'll get back to when it was so)
We'll get back to when it was simple (We'll get back to when it was so simple, we'll get back to when it)
(We'll get back to when it was simple, so simple)
Yeah, yeah (We'll get back to when it was so)
We'll get back to when it was simple (We'll get back to when it was so simple, we'll get back to when it)

What did Sam Fischer say about "Simple"?
Genius Answer
I wrote this song through one of my lower points of the last year, but it’s one of my favourite songs. Relationships have their struggles, even in normal times – and this year has been anything but normal. It’s hard to be there for someone when you’re struggling to be there for yourself. I’m grateful to be with an amazing woman who is willing to fight through the hard times to get back to the simple love that started everything.
Is there a live performance available?
