Simple, simple, life is a simple tune Simple, simple, simple like an exercise That’s the song I’m writing ‘bout my darling’s eyes Play it on the piano or a sweet celeste Just so when she hears it She will feel she’s been caressed Simple, simple, simple not a symphony Life is oh so simple ‘cause my love loves me Play it sweet and simple, gently I insist Just so when she hears it She will know that she’s been kissed Life is oh so simple like a melody When I can give all my love to thee Life is oh so simple like a melody When he can give all his love to me Simple, simple, simple like an exercise That’s the song I’m singing ‘Bout my darling’s eyes I will sing it softly like a cooing dove I put it on a record and I’ll send it to my love
