De Eenvoud [English translation]

I have learned from Erich Kästner

That a word means so much

That you don't need lots of them

To say what you feel

I have learned from my granddad

Who's almost a hundred years old now

That with your eyes alone

you can say what you feel

And I love that simplicity

I love simplicity

All that swollen language

all those frills leave me cold

I love simplicity

I love simplicity

I want a house, I want a love

That's built upon the rocks

'Cause I love simplicity

I have learned from my dad

To always be honest

Although that's a cliché

And it doesn't get you anywhere

When I see you, with that smile

With those sparkles in your eyes

God, you only need so little

You are so pretty how you stand there

(Refrain)

I have learned from my mother

That there are so many people alive

That it's stupid to think

That the world revolves around me

(Refrain)

I love simplicity
