Baby, the fire's gone out
It's getting cold
And there ain't no doubt
Movin' on seems like
The best solution
To keep us both
On the track of truth

A simple rule
Any fool will tell you
A simple rule
Written in your heart
Simple rules
Never lose their value
Simple rules
We shouldn't disregard

Baby, the music's stopped
The band is leaving
They're closing up
Movin' on seems like
The best solution
'Cause deep inside
There's silence too

A simple rule
Any fool will tell you
A simple rule
Written in your heart
Simple rules
Never lose their value
Simple rules
We shouldn't disregard

In a perfect world
We could be as one
Without a past
To divide us
With a new belief
To hold on to
And no more rules
To guide us

Baby, the fire's gone out
It's gettin cold
And there just ain't no doubt
We're losing all
Of what we had together
But deep inside
I'm still a part of you

A simple rule
Any fool will tell you
A simple rule
Written in your heart
Simple rules
Never lose their value
Simple rules
We shouldn't disregard
