The End Of The Innocence
Remember when the days were longAnd rolled beneath a deep blue skyDidn't have a care in the worldWith mommy and daddy standing byWhen "happily ever after" failsAnd we've been poisoned by these fairy talesThe lawyers dwell on small detailsSince daddy had to flyBut I know a place where we can goThat's still untouched by manWe'll sit and watch the clouds roll byAnd the tall grass wave in the windYou can lay your head back on the groundAnd let your hair fall all around meOffer up your best defenseBut this is the endThis is the end of the innocenceO' beautiful, for spacious skiesBut now those skies are threateningThey're beating plowshares into swordsFor this tired old man that we elected kingArmchair warriors often failAnd we've been poisoned by these fairy talesThe lawyers clean up all detailsSince daddy had to lieBut I know a place where we can goLetras de cancionesAnd was away this sinWe'll sit and watch the clouds roll byAnd the tall grass wave in the windJust lay your head back on the groundAnd let your hair spill all around meOffer up your best defenseBut this is the endThis is the end of the innocenceWho knows how long this will lastNow we've come so far, so fastBut, somewhere back there in the dustThat same small town in each of usI need to remember thisSo baby give me just one kissAnd let me take a long last lookBefore we say good byeJust lay your head back on the groundAnd let your hair fall all around meOffer up your best defenseBut this is the endThis is the end of the innocence From Letras Mania
