A precious child, a baby's smile
And it don't take a lot to pull you through

Or the rain that falls across your windowpane

Find somethin' that will brighten up your day
A season change, the smell of springtime in May
Or your woman's love to keep you warm at night
It don't help to worry, there's no need to hurry
Oh, you know the simple things can get you through the hardest times
But look around you, I know, you're bound to

Like your favorite song, a call from home
A season change, the smell of springtime in May
Oh, you know the simple things can get you through the hardest times
Like your favorite song, a call from home
A precious child, a baby's smile

Like a precious child, a baby's smile
Or your woman's love to keep you warm at night
And at times, Lord, it's more than you can take

Or the rain that falls across your windowpane
Or your woman's love to keep you warm at night
Oh, you know the simple things can get you through the hardest times
Life's a puzzle and sometimes a struggle
