Through a taxi window
You see her wipe her tears
Then drive away
As the tail lights fade

All at once the struggles seem so small
It's not that complicated after all

If you can't smile when she's not around
If you can't live if living's without
If it takes her leaving to realize
If it's all clear through the tears in your eyes

It's simple
(Go after her)
So simple
(Go after her)

All those wasted moments
The words you can't get back
When you held your ground
And wouldn't back down

There's no fight that's worth the price you pay
Wrong or right you can always find a way

If you can't smile when she's not around
If you can't live if living's without
If it takes her leaving to realize
If it's all clear through the tears in your eyes

It's simple
(Go after her)
So simple
(Go after her)

Go after her, don't let her get away
Go after her or you'll look back some day

All the things that you could have done
Don't just stand there and let her run

If you can't smile when she's not around
If you can't live if living's without
If it takes her leaving to realize
If it's all clear through the tears in your eyes

If she's the only thought that's on your mind
When you breathe, when you speak
When you sleep, when you dream

It's simple
(Go after her)
So simple
(Go after her)

So simple
(Go after her)
So simple
