Story behind the song
Was a poem written for my poetry class converted into my first song written in college. Originally entitled "Simplicity".
Lyrics
Walking to find that perfect place in the park to spread
The picnic blanket, and we finished eating while sitting on a
Supple arrangement and I can still picture us
Lying there
The wind’s soft blowing
Made the trees speak out
And we clasped our hands
Watching the leaves come alert
Spilling in a choreographed kind of way
And hand in hand I held you close hoping the thought of us would last
Till every year’s end
The wind’s soft blowing
Made the trees speak out
Oh how I sometimes wish days would be that simple
Lying there next to you…
