Simple Pleasures

Walking on water out in the sunshine
Messing around in the estuary bay
Digging for cockles, oysters and mussels this will be lunch today

When winter comes calling we’ll be out walking
Out in the snow that fell last night
Running up hillsides bopping down backwards, laughing along the way

Simple pleasures don’t need much money
It’s kind of funny it turned out that way
Simple pleasures lift up our spirits
It’s fun just to have you to stay

Falling asleep in the passenger’s seat
Well I guess you don’t have much to say
It’s the end of year and Schools out for summer, now you’re too tired to play

Lets go out shopping pick up some groceries
Climb in the car and we head back home
Get out the board game Tell me some stories, help me cook tea to night

Simple pleasures, don’t need much money
It’s kind of funny it turned out that way
Simple pleasures lift up our spirits
It’s fun just to have you to stay

Who knows what the future might hold and
Who knows when we grow old
Who knows what's right and wrong
It’s fun just to be good friends

Who knows what right and wrong
Who knows what the future might hold
Who knows what the people bring
As long as we can be together again

With someone to hold you, love you scold you, getting a hug from your mum and dad
Don’t need no screen time just a walk in the sunshine
You won’t be feeling so bad

Simple pleasures, don’t need much money
It’s kind of funny it turned out that way
Simple pleasures lift up our spirits
It’s fun just having you to stay

Simple pleasures don’t take much money
It’s kind of funny it turned out that way
Simple pleasures lift up our spirits
It’s fun just having you to stay
