Simplicity can be nice at times, but it can get old after awhile.
Cloudless skies, so pure and simple,
Sparkling pools, without a ripple
Here, no complication
Here, it's true perfection

Endless plains, so green and peaceful
Twinkling stars, so bright and hopeful
Here, all peace and beauty
Here, all eyes wish to see

But what is plain simplicity
With no difficulties to see?
Here, there is nothing wrong
Here, it's the same old song

Complexity supplies interest
Clouds in the skies are for the best
Here, no one stays for long
Here, it's the same old song

Stare at water to see it change!
Motionless pools, they're not the same
For here, one stays not long
Here, it's the same old song

At times, simplicity is there
But not too long, and none to spare
Here, perfection no longer
There, perfection is stronger
