Eric Martin, Hartmann, The Vardigans - Simple Man lyrics

He should've seen it coming
When the love grew old
Wife and kids, they left him
And the house got sold
The silence getting louder
Nightfall comes too soon he lost everything
Now shooting bullets at the Moon

Saw him living with another man
Two smiling faces walking hand in hand
When your imagination gets the best of you
When it's too much to take
Like from a nightmare you wake
And a hole in your shoes

When all is said and done
Living life on the run
Does anybody know his name?
Once he sets out to be free
Now he's down on his knees
And got no one else to blame
The one in the life with no plan
He's just a simple man
He's just a simple man oh, oh, oh

Right down my face still not meant to be
The dreams got run over by reality
Whatever destination that he might choose
The hole in his heart
Just like the holes in his shoes
Gotta sail in the blue sail in the blue

When all is said and done
Living life on the run
Does anybody know his name? (Know his name)
Once he sets out to be free
Now he's down on his knees
And got no one else to blame
Just some wine and some smoke
For the pain of the simple man hey
Ooh, ooh

He's just a simple man
He's just a simple man simple man
Doing all that he can doing all that he can
He's just a simple man
He's just a simple man a simple man
Oh just a simple man
