A Simple Girl

A simple girl

She looks like vanilla ice cream
 Her lips are cotton candy sweet
And the dust turns to sugar
When it touches her feet

Her eyes are as green as the ocean
And her smile has change this man’s world
Her beauty’s so full of passion
And yet she says she’s a simple girl

They say the birds comes close
To hear her voice when she’s talking
And the sun follows her everywhere
When she’s out walking

Just one look at her 
And my heart been stole
She, s an angel sends down from heaven
And still she says she’s a simple girl

 Some say she’s the modern 
Florence Nightingale of yesterday
Her patients swear that she is
 Treats them with so much kindness they say

Sometimes she at night 
Wear a fleece when she’s cold
Talk to her friend when he is down
And still she thinks she’s a simple girl

If they miss everything wonderful
And all that is sweet
And all the stars from the heavens
 She Got it all at her feet

And she is so kind to me
Got a heart of gold
She has my whole life in her hands
And still she says she’s a simple girl

She cares so much for everyone
That her heart got  so weak
 She has to do something in the days ahead
I’m so worried I cannot speak

And how I love her so
She is my heart and soul
She is everything to me
And still she says she’s a simple girl
