Common, Simple, Beautiful

Don't you agree when they all say Home is where the heart is But do you see With every step that you take You get further away From where the heart is It's so easy to be blinded And caught up up in the clouds where everything's in a haze Causing you to forget about the days Of the common simple beautiful ways I remember all the times that I had spent with my friends Taking BART to San Francisco just for 350 cents Talking laughing joking didn't quite know what was to come Years of memories irreplaceable fun I remember telling mom that I'd make her proud one day She would smile and knew exactly all the right things to say Man I miss her and can't wait 'til I get back to the Bay Back to the common simple beautiful ways Isn't it nice To simply know There's somewhere you can go back to So it's a big sacrifice Everytime that you decide You can't even if you want to It's so easy to be blinded And caught up up in the clouds where everything's in a haze Causing you to forget about the days Of the common simple beautiful ways I remember all the times that I had spent with my friends Taking BART to San Francisco just for 350 cents Talking laughing joking didn't quite know what was to come Years of memories irreplaceable fun I remember telling mom that I'd make her proud one day She would smile and knew exactly all the right things to say Man I miss her and can't wait 'til I get back to the Bay Back to the common simple beautiful ways
