The One Thing I Can’t Simplify (Wonderful Soul)

[[VERSE 1]] Lived in a cave for much of my life I was terrified of the person I was. Suddenly I stumbled out of darkness My own little version of Lazarus. [[VERSE 2]] You were the one thing I focused on You drew me like the proverbial moth This time I didn’t run for the shadows Your fire cut me down in its aftermath. [[CHORUS]] Wonderful Soul, maybe things could be simpler, But you’re the one thing I can’t simplify Wonderful Soul, your face is the most beautiful When you’re looking me in the eye. [[VERSE 3]] In darkness, the faces I’d been touching Were like marble and granite without fail. Let me read your blood and your frailty Like they were written in Braille. [[CHORUS]] Wonderful Soul, maybe things could be simpler, But you’re the one thing I can’t simplify (the one thing I can't simplify) Wonderful Soul, your face is the most beautiful When you’re looking me in the eye. [[BRIDGE]] I’m dwelling on the surface now, no longer a troglodyte. I'm alive on the surface now (so alive) Even the nights are blazing with fire (blazing with fire) In this country made of light. [[CHORUS]] Wonderful Soul, maybe things could be simpler, But you’re the one thing I won't simplify (the one thing I refuse) Wonderful Soul, your face is the most beautiful When you’re looking me in the eye. Come to me and look me in the eye (never look away, don't look away) Wonderful Soul, the truth of your beautiful face Is spoken when you look me in the eye. Look me in the eye, look me in the eye. Never look away
