In Songs with Substance

A reminder from a friend…

290 Views 2 Comments

After chatting to a friend the other day about having a simple mind, a peaceful mind, this song has stuck with me… so often we get so caught up in the rat race, our minds are so busy that we forget to slow down and listen, listen to our hearts, listen to our souls and what they have to say…

This song ironically is not about decluttering the mind but perhaps it is, you choose…

Somewhere Along The Way
I Got Caught Up In The Race
I Kept Spinning And Turning
Lost Myself My Hope My Faith

We’re Always Wanting More Than What We Have
And What I’ve Learned Is All I Really Need Are…

The Simple Things
That Come Without A Price
The Simple Things
Like Happiness Joy And Love In My Life
I’ve Seen It All From So Many Sides
And I Hope You Would Agree
The Best Things In Life
Are The Simple Things

Hey Everybody Don’t Get Me Wrong You Got To Understand Ambition And Knowledge
Are The Seeds Of Every Woman And Man

It’s Good To Work… Work Hard And Prosper
As Long As You Take Time To Find…

The Simple Things
That Come Without A Price
The Simple Things
Like Happiness Joy And Love In My Life
I’ve Seen It All From So Many Sides
And I Hope You Would Agree
That The Best Things In Life
Are The Simple Things

Solo

This World Moves So Fast
Sometimes You Got To Slow Down, Down, Down
To Find Out What Its All About

We’re Always Wanting More Than What We Have
What I’ve Learned, Is What I Really Need A

The Simple Things
That Come Without A Price
The Simple Things
Like Happiness Joy And Love In My Life
I’ve Seen It All From So Many Sides
And I Hope You Would Agree
The Best Things In Life
Are The Simple Things

    That is an amazing song. Gotta love Joe Cocker… even though he can’t sing a lick!
