Me and Candice waking up to a heat wave

Mother's in the garden inviting everyone

Ooo, we'd cut off our old jeans and go outside

Neighbour's always smiling with a baby on her knee

Rhea sat on the front step getting her hair combed out and greased

And music, the bass boomin' pours from a car parked in the street

Got that new song on repeat



I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you

I'd, I'd like to paint these pictures for you

Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from

I'm just trying to make you see

That I desire the simple things



Growing up we didn't have a lot of money

Used to spend our summers having parties on the drive

Plastic cups for rum and punch, Eating chicken that's hot and sweet

All the women discussing what love is like, ooh you know the way I mean

And I'm just sitting, watching, hoping the boys will call for me

Got that new song on repeat



I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you

I'd, I'd like to paint these pictures for you

Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from

I'm just trying to make you see

That I desire the simple things



Maybe then, now and then I would I want somebody

Delicate, intimate used to dream of someone to love

Now you come and you go right by me

I know I'm in love



I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you

I'd, I'd like to paint these pictures for you

Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from

I'm just trying to make you see

That I desire the simple things

I'd, I'd like to put my fingers on you

I'd, I'd like to paint these pictures for you

Sometimes you don't understand where I'm coming from

I'm just trying to make you see

That I desire the simple things
