Intro: verse 1: Show me the magic I must've lost it somewhere In my dreams, so far away I turned around, everything's changing but me Where is the soul in my song? Once there was heaven in my eyes Whatever happened to those skies? Somebody show me how to Get back to the simple life Interlude 1: verse 2: Out of the blue Temptation's all around me The train came along and I got on board I danced with the darkness The skies were the limit It's such a long way to fall Once there was heaven in my eyes Whatever happened to those skies? Somebody show me how to Get back to the simple life 'cause I've done my time in paradise I've tried it all maybe once or twice Somebody show me how to Get back to the simple life Bridge: Stars keep me going And the moon is there to light my way I need to go where my heart is free Looking for the way back, hoping for the way back (Instrumental lead-in over Chorus chords) Somebody show me how to Get back to the simple life 'cause I've done my time in paradise I've tried it all maybe once or twice Somehow the grass was always greener On the other side Once there was heaven in my eyes Whatever happened to those skies? Somebody show me how to Get back to the simple life I've tried it all maybe once or twice Somebody show me show show show me A simple life Once there was heaven in my eyes Once there was heaven in my eyes Somebody show me, show me...
