Verse
Things were simpler in the sandbox
That was right beside that old barn
Sometimes we played with little toy blocks
Sometimes it was the cat and a ball of yarn
Pre-Chorus
But things aren't so simple anymore
As now we say goodbye to yesterday
And, oh, late at night, I'm walkin' the floor
Wishing hard there was another way
Chorus
Things aren't so simple anymore
What we had has taken quite a fall
Now all this freedom is more like prison walls
And things aren't so simple, oh, anymore
SOLO/Verse
Back then against the world, all was good
In that life, we had everything
But now everything seems misunderstood
Though I'm still wearing our wedding ring
Repeat Chorus/Tag
No, things aren't so simple anymore
