	A classic-sounding pop song with the classic boy-girl scenario. Plus, it's got a good beat and you can dance to it.

	Story Behind the Song Yeah, this is a out-and-out pop song, but I'd still like to think the lyrics are getting deeper than your typical three-minute ditty. I will confess that the music and melody came near instantly from heaven above, so maybe God wants more catchy pop songs in the world? And Craig swears I wrote most of these lines about him directly, but the sad truth is most guys--and girls--spend more time than we should obsessing over those select individuals who never seem to care quite as much as we want them to... Lyrics The Simplest Things when the fighting is done and the battle's been won do you wait for the next war to start can you love what you have like you love what you want or would you rather just rip it apart build your walls build your walls build your walls build your walls I've got a fortress of my own call the infantry back there's no need for attack I'm approaching unarmed and alone I have empires in my grasp I have empires in my grasp and here I sit still waiting on a call from you waiting on a sign that I got through I'm waiting on a call from you the simplest things can bring down kings all the armies you keep in your bed as you sleep they won't save you from being let down are you waiting up there just to let down your hair for the first prince who offers his crown turn your head turn your head turn your head turn your head there's a ransom inside if you'd open your eyes I'll surrender myself with the white flag upheld but I can't wait in line while you make up your mind what good is power if I still get weak when you start to speak what good is wisdom if I never know why you let me go I have empires in my grasp I have empires in my grasp but I'm still sitting here waiting on a call from you waiting on a single word or two I'm waiting on a call from you the simplest things can bring down kings the simplest things can bring down kings the simplest things can bring down kings
