Name: Simpler Times
Duration: P00H03M41S
Description: The song harks back to days of old and is about longing for simpler times. It was inspired by the love of our grandparents, whose eyes connected offline and away from the distractions of social media. We want this song to paint a picture of a slower life, where movies were black and white and interactions were authentic and real.

lyrics

When it comes to you and I I'm colourblind
Takes me back to simpler times
When everything was black and white our eyes connected offline
When it comes to you and I I'm colourblind

When it comes to you and I I'm colourblind
Sit and listen to the wind chime
Speech or silence noise or quiet found in you I'm lost in time
To know that I am yours and you are mine

I've been thinking you're never different at all
And when you listen you're never distant, never distant
Your consistency is overwhelming me
I've been colourblind I won't ever hide it
