One Simple Thing Lyrics

As if this world had only just begun...
We'd give back all the things we have but one...
Only one...

One simple thing kept between you and me
Will build a wall no one else can see
One simple thing is all we really need
To make it all complete

Here -- within this changing place
We run the longest race
Keeping the better pace
Here -- we manufacture dreams
Even the greatest needs
Are satisfied with ease

One simple thing kept between you and me
Will build a wall no one else can see
One simple thing is all we really need
To make it all complete


Here -- within this changing mind
Where anything untried
Is never far behind
Here -- within this open heart
Life begins to spark
And this is where you are

One simple thing kept between you and me
Will build a wall no one else can see
One simple thing is all we really need
To make it all complete
