Ooh... ooh...
Ooh... ooh...
Nobody can feel the pain
That's what you said
Nobody remains the same
Everything changes
Somebody's left in the rain
Again and again
You have to live your life
Like the host of a grand parade
(Blinded by the lights)
I tried to shine a light
On the face of the masquerade
I am a, a simple man
I had a, a simple plan:
To love you, ooh...
Just to love you, ooh...
Nobody can change the game
To try is insane
Somebody cut to the vein
It's all erased
You couldn't understand
Why you're loneliest in the crowd
(Ooh, it broke your heart)
I tried to take your hand
And to help you to cry out loud
I am a, a simple man
I had a, a simple plan
Now I have blood on my hands
I loved you, yes, I loved you
I'll try to shine your light
On the face of the masquerade
(Face of the masquerade)
I am a, a simple man
I had a, a simple plan
Now I have blood on my hands
I am a simple man
(A simple man)
I am a simple man
I am a simple man
I am a simple man
I am a, a simple man
I had a, a simple plan
