SIMPLY PURE song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

up and down
round and round
riding on the merry-go-round

all the kids
girls and boys
spinning out and laughing with joy

on the edge
parents watch
smiling now but not so much

wishing they
too could play
but their childhood is out of touch

and they know this is something pure
something that they will not have no more
something simply pure
simply pure

memory
speaks to me
I remember how it could be

all the days
we would play
and the things that we would say

happiness
just a guess
didn't know that we were so blessed

but the past
couldn't last
and the moment just a test

now I know that this was something pure
something that the world is waiting for

so the earth
spins around
just like the merry-go-round

and the heart
spins around
and the peace of mind can not be found

never knew that this would be
the end of purity
never knew, knew for sure
this would be the end of something pure

now I know this was something pure
something that will never come no more

simply pure

Life is like a merry-go-round in your poem. Some get on again get off again.
