I walked across an empty land 
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand 
I felt the earth beneath my feet 
Sat by the river, and it made me complete 
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone? 
I'm getting old, and I need something to rely on 
So tell me when you're gonna let me in 
I'm getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin 
I came across a fallen tree 
I felt the branches of it looking at me 
Is this the place we used to love? 
Is this the place that I've been dreaming of? 
Oh, simple thing, where have you gone? 
I'm getting old, and I need something to rely on 
So tell me when you're gonna let me in 
I'm getting tired, and I need somewhere to begin 
And if you have a minute, why don't we go 
Talk about it somewhere only we know? 
This could be the end of everything 
So why don't we go 
Somewhere only we know?
