Simple Love Lyrics
Little yellow house sittin' on a hill
That is where he lived
That is where he died
Every Sunday morning
Hear the weeping willows cry
Two children born
A beautiful wife
Four walls and livin's all he needed in life
Always giving, never asking back
I wish I had a simple love like that
[Chorus]
I want a simple love like that
Always giving, never askin' back
For when I'm in my final hour lookin' back
I hope I had a simple love like that
My mama was his only little girl
If he'd had the money, he'd have given her the world
Sittin' on the front porch, together they would sing
Oh, how I long to hear that harmony
[Chorus x 2]
That is where he lived
That is where he died
Every Sunday morning
Hear the weeping willows cry
A beautiful wife
Four walls and livin's all he needed in life
Always giving, never asking back
I wish I had a simple love like that
I want a simple love like that
Always giving, never askin' back
For when I'm in my final hour lookin' back
I hope I had a simple love like that
If he'd had the money, he'd have given her the world
Sittin' on the front porch, together they would sing
Oh, how I long to hear that harmony

She brings a lot of personal attachment to her songs, this one included. I was very surprised to read this one was written by someone else. Either way it kind of reminds me of "He Walked on Water" by Randy Travis. Reflection on older generation in your family and how simple and awesome their lives were. How they seemed almost like surreal figures in our lives. I had grandparents like this thankfully and can really relate to this song.
