The hustle and bustle is not for me
I want to live a quiet life, enjoy my own company
Forget the noises of the city
I'll sit here, make a drink, tell myself I look pretty
I don't want to take a bus, a taxi, or a train
I want to walk along on foot, even if it's in the rain
I don't want neighbors that I can see
Just a private backyard, fulfilling my own destiny
I want to hear the sounds of the great outdoors
The birds chirping, leaves falling, and begging for more
I don't like sirens or obnoxious parties
Rather play my guitar and write sad stories
I want to breathe deep, that fresh mountain air
And have no ones worries but my own to care
Some may call it selfish, this life I lead
But in this heart will live no greed
Only opportunity for learning and self growth
Live on, my child, let your feet feel the earth
The time is right
All is now
Simplicity and love
Will show you how
