Simple
Florida Georgia Line
The way your fingers fit in mine
It's five plus five, not rocket science
This day in time, that's hard to find
It's true
The road we're on ain't a traffic jam
It's a Sunday drive on a piece of land
It's paradise as long as I'm with you
It's like one, two, three
Just as easy as can be
Just the way you look at me
You make me smile
Ain't no need to complicate it, we both know that's overrated
We've been there, it's safe to say it ain't our style
It's just that simple, S-I-M-P-L-E
Simple as can be
It's just that simple, S-I-M-P-L-E
Simple as can be
We used to live on Instagram
Worry 'bout who all gives a damn
'Bout where we've been and where we ended up
Then I met you and you met me
And all the rest is history an epiphany
That all we need is us
It's like…

September. With an area of 320,000 square metres, the
Merriweather Mall will be the biggest mall in the south
west. It’s located close to the motorway, has its own bus
station and 2000 car parking spaces, so it is convenient

Main Street, is a shopping area on three floors. Here,
you’ll find all the major chain stores and department
stores. You can buy fashion items and all the famous
brand names. There is also a large chemist.
Situated on two levels, the market square is where you
can find traditional market stalls. On the lower floor,
there are food stalls, including a butcher’s, baker’s, a
fishmonger’s, greengrocer’s and delicatessen. On the
upper floor, you will find stalls selling hardware and
haberdashery.
Bohemia is at the rear of the mall. Here, you’ll find
quirky, independent shops selling everything from
second hand music and books to clothes and
handicrafts.
The Palisade is more upmarket. Here you will find
fashion boutiques, jewellers, antiques and
