Simple Soul

I'd lift my head with each sunrise
 If I had a simple soul
 When I was weary I'd close my eyes
 If I had a simple soul
 Not too complicated to shiver when I'm cold
 I'd make my home where I am bound
 If I had a simple soul, simple soul
 I say my prayers and hope to God
 And I know he will know
 I will break my daily bread
 When hunger starts to grow
 It doesn't have to be that hard
 If it hurts you let it go
 What you see is what you are
 If you've got a simple soul, simple soul
 It might take an alchemist
 To turn your dust to gold
 But it only takes a child to see
 The diamonds in the coal
 It's not so easy when a habit takes a hold
 I never knew it would be so hard
 To keep my simple soul, simple soul
