Simple Man - Graham Nash

A song dedicated to Joni Mitchell, whom both Crosby and Nash dated in the early 70s. Both singers collaborate together on an English television show. I first came across this song through the film Reign Over Me starring Adam Sandler. Once i discovered Graham Nash more songs like this started to stand out from that period in music.

I am a simple man

So I sing a simple song

Never been so much in love

And never hurt so bad at the same time

I am a simple man

And I play a simple tune

I wish that I could see you once again

Across the room like the first time

I just want to hold you I don't want to hold you down

I hear what you're saying and you're spinning my head around

And I can't make it alone

The ending of the tale

Is the singing of the song

Make me proud to be your man only you can make me strong

Like the last time

I just want to hold you I don't want to hold you down

I hear what you're saying and you're spinning my head around

And I can't make it alone.
