Vanessa Amorosi - The Simple Things (Something Emotional) lyrics

Saw an old friend yesterday Who's a big success Got a Bentley and a Rolex And a Gucci dress Got the guys all lined up waitin For her to pull their string And she told me all about Her latest hot sweet thing She's got everything a girl could ever want or need All that money can afford But there's still a voice inside that keeps crying out For something more [CHORUS] Something emotional Something that's beautiful Something that stands the test of time Why are the simple things so hard to find Something emotional Something that's wonderful Something that lifts us high above Here we are waiting to be saved by love Just to wake up in the morning To a familiar face Conversation over coffee To start my day I pick up the phone And dial to see if mum's around Wouldn't mind just droppin by For a visit now I could travel round the world, write my name in the sky Make my dreams come true But it wouldn't mean a thing if I didn't know that I Could come home to [CHORUS] Something emotional Something that's beautiful Something that stands the test of time Why are the simple things so hard to find Something emotional Something that's wonderful Something that lifts us high above Here we are waiting to be saved by love And I long someday To have children of my own To share those precious moments To know you're not alone To be as good as my mother Was to me in my younger years The laughter, the fights... the tears
