    What happened to romance, work and the way the world is run? Imagine a better life in a world made better. Keep it simple and make sure there's enough. (This is a folk rock version, but it sings nicely in country, R&B and rock. Check out the sheet music under "Links" and give it a try!)

    Story Behind the Song
    We wrote this in 1992 when we felt that much of the world was overloaded with too much information and too many things. At the same time, there was lots of stress and many people were doing without basic necessities. It seemed like there should be enough for everybody and that people would be happier if things weren't so complicated. And some how these two ideas fit together. Now it's 2003 and we've been through a whole cycle and how much have things changed? Where will we be in another ten years?

    Lyrics
    I met someone
    I liked a lot
    We fell into romance
    Then I met
    Another one
    And so I took a chance
    The nights were long
    The feelings high
    I wondered who's the one
    Now I'm sitting
    All alone
    Instead of two I've none

    (Chorus)

    I'll call you back
    That time's no good
    Talk to my machine
    Let's do lunch
    The newest place
    We can make the scene
    Things to do
    People to see
    Oh will it never end
    Sometimes I miss
    A quite space
    And talking with a friend

    (Chorus)

    Some have the most
    Some have the least
    And some have in between
    They say enough's
    As good as a feast
    But less will make you mean
    When things get hard
    To figure out
    The leaders grab the reins
    It seems if things
    Were simpler
    We all could play the game

    (Chorus)

    Some food to eat
    Some clothes to wear
    Four walls to keep us safe
    It's not a lot
    For us to ask
    For the human race
    The water clean
    Air fresh and clear
    And love and freedom strong
    Maybe some day
    We'll all join in
    To live and sing this song

    Chorus:

    Simple And Enough
    Simple And Enough
    Imagine that
    The world will turn
    On Simple And Enough
