Simple Man Songtext
von Klaus Nomi

I′m, I'm just a simple man
I have to do the simple things
That a simple man can
You are holding out your hand
You want to know the simple things
In my simple plan, and

I know there′s so much to share
But what else can I do?

Yes, I'm a simple man (I'm a simple man)
Come now and take my hand (come and take my hand)
Now and forever, never to be lonely
Yes, I′m a simple man (I′m a simple man)
I do the best I can (I do the best I can)
Now and together, just remember only
That I'm a simple man


Love is just a simple thought
A little bit the worse for wear
Like a thief who got caught
Hope is just a thing you bought
It′s just another safe white lie
That everybody got taught

I can see you look to me
So what else can I do?

Yes, I'm a simple man (I′m a simple man)
Come now and take my hand (come and take my hand)
Now and forever, never to be lonely
Yes, I'm a simple man (I′m a simple man)
I do the best I can (I do the best I can)
Now and together, just remember only
That I'm a simple man

I do the best I can
I got a simple, simple plan
I hope you understand
I'm just a simple man (yes, I′m a simple man)
I′m holding out my hand (holding out my hand)
It's such a simple, simple plan (such a simple plan)
I hope you understand (you understand)


Yes, I′m a simple man (I'm a simple man)
Come now and take my hand (come and take my hand)
Now and forever, never to be lonely
Yes, I′m a simple man (I'm a simple man)
I do the best I can (I do the best I can)
Now and together, just remember only
It′s so simple
