Lyrics Van Halen – In A Simple Rhyme
Text:
Well, back in the past when I was treated so coldly,
my love life was a darn disgrace.
Needed someone to love and hold me.
That’s one of the reasons that I was out of place.
So this is love! Well, she finally kissed me.
Had me all worked up inside.
I was in love, but Cupid missed me.
She up and left, and I almost died.
But I was young and I was far from lonely.
I been that way for a long, long year.
Needed a girl to call my one and only.
Is that you?
You think you got the int’rest.
C’mon and take the time.
‘Cause you know I wanna be
yours in a simple rhyme.
Well, ain’t life grand when you finally hit it?
I’m always a sucker for a real good time.
Woke up in life to find I almost missed it.
Ain’t I glad that love is blind?
But I was young and I was far too crazy.
Been that way for a long, long time.
Needed a girl, but I was just too lazy.
Now that I’ve found you:
You think you got the int’rest.
C’mon and take the time.
I’m gonna be
yours in a simple
rhyme,
rhyme.

She made her mountains sing.
Birds against an icy sky.
And I heard bells ringin’
I think I heard an angel sigh. And she said:
There’ll be times,
there will be times
you’re gonna hear the angels singin’Ah.
Ah.
Ah.»
You think you got the int’rest.
C’mon and take the time.
