Simple, simple, life is a simple tune
Simple, simple, simple like an exercise
That’s the song I’m writing ‘bout my darling’s eyes
Play it on the piano or a sweet celeste
Just so when she hears it
She will feel she’s been caressed

Simple, simple, simple not a symphony
Life is oh so simple ‘cause my love loves me
Play it sweet and simple, gently I insist
Just so when she hears it
She will know that she’s been kissed

Life is oh so simple like a melody
When I can give all my love to thee
Life is oh so simple like a melody
When he can give all his love to me

Simple, simple, simple like an exercise
That’s the song I’m singing
‘Bout my darling’s eyes
I will sing it softly like a cooing dove
I put it on a record and I’ll send it to my love
