Story Behind The Song
Was asked by a minister friend if I knew a song about love that I could play at a mutual friends wedding. This was the result. I wanted a 60's feel.

Lyrics
Plain, Simple Love
plain simple love, plain simple love, plain simple love.
Isn?t shiny, like a brand new car,
doesn?t glitter, like a falling star,
but it?s still there when the times get tough,
and it knows when enough?s enough,
it makes us laugh, makes us cry,
it?s with us when we?re born and when we die...
plain simple love, plain simple love, plain simple love.
it was there the day I said ?I do?,
was loving me and it was loving you,
no need to dress it up to look the part,
its beauty?s really in the heart,
you might be rich, might be poor,
but it?s love that we?re all looking for...
plain simple love, plain simple love, plain simple love.
it makes us friends and makes us family,
it ends our loneliness, our misery,
you can see it in a simple smile,
won?t mind waiting, if you take a while,
plain simple love.
knows when to pick up the phone and ring,
knows when you don?t need to say a thing,
it can?t stand rumours, can?t stand lies,
and it?s not too proud to apologise
it can?t be bought, there?s no price
but you can share it, that?s the best advice...
plain simple love, plain simple love, plain simple love.
plain simple love, plain simple love, plain simple love.
