Lyrics by Gary Osborne
|
|
I'm a simple man with a simple dream
|
In a far from simple time
|
And I paid the price of the road I chose
|
But at least the choice was mine
|
|
And the times I get the feeling
|
That the journey's end is near
|
But I prefer to die with my head held high
|
Than to live my life in fear
|
|
I'm a simple man from a time gone by
|
Growing cold and old alone
|
There's a time to run and a time to hide
|
And a time to head for home
|
|
To forgive and be forgiven
|
If it's the last thing I can do
|
Then in death's release I may find the peace
|
That in life I never knew
|
|
'Cause I'm a simple man with a simple dream
|
|
