Subject: Lyr Add: A SIMPLE SONG (Allan Taylor)
And here's the lyrics...

Sometimes I think you're almost there,
Sometimes I think you almost care
Enough to stay and say I love you
Sometimes I think I hear your voice
And feel your body warm and nice
And maybe, then again, I cannot hear you
Oh, why did fortune pass me by,
Turn the truth into a lie
I didn't want to hurt you any more

Sometimes when things go wrong I know
I'll sing this simple song I wrote
A song to bring you just a little nearer
But then the song will fade away
And I am too afraid to stay
To wait and hope the picture will get clearer
Oh, why did fortune pass me by,
Turn the truth into a lie
I didn't want to hurt you any more

And maybe in a future land
I'll stop the world and make a stand
And start it once again for us together
And then the times that we had lost
And all the tears that turned to frost
Would melt and soothe the pain for one another
Oh why did fortune pass me by,
Turn the truth into a lie
