We  want all  very simple things
 but we know  very little.
And  so we get  very complicated  stuff, -> ->-> -> -> ->
 EX
 love and such, 'cause all in all we're beautiful
 How easily  we fall  in love.
 You walk  to me, you talk  to me.
 And sudden  glances fall  upon you  and me.
 This harmony  is meant  to be a symphony.
 We all assume that we rule our lives
 but we can't even hold our breath.
 Who knows how suddenly worlds are turning,
 how suddenly things may change?
 We are so terribly unpredictable and wonderful.
 Just turn around and I'll be gone.
 How easily we fall in love.
 You walk to me, you talk to me.
 Then suddenly you go again.
 I'm losing you, I'm losing you.
 Oh talk to me, I'm losing you. Fm2
 And now,  it's all  very simple now.  -> ->-> -> -> ->
   EX
 I hope we get this love alive, as easy as it is.
 How easily we fall in love.
 You walk to me, you talk to me.
 And suddenly you're far away.
 I'm loosing you, I'm loosing you.
 Then silently you answer me:
 "You're fading out, I'm loosing you".
 Oh talk to me. I'm holding on.
