The End of the Innocence sing and play along
Remember when the days were long and rolled beneath a deep blue sky?
They're Didn't have a care in the world,
for with mommy and daddy we standin' by.
But "happily ever after" fails and we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers dwell on small details
since daddy had to fly.
Ah, but I know a place where we can go
that's still untouched by men.
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by and the tall grass wave in the wind.
You can lay your head back on the ground and let your hair fall all around me.
Offer up your best defense
but this is the end,
this is the end
of the innocence.
O beautiful, for spacious skys, but now those skys are threatening.
They're beating plow shares into the swords for this tired old man that we eed king.
But "happi Armchair iors often fail and we've been poisoned by these fairy tales.
The lawyers clean all the details
since daddy had to lie.
Ah, But I know a place where we can go
and wash away this sin.
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by and the tall grass wave in the wind.
You can lay your head back on the ground and let your hair fall all around me.
Offer up your best defense
but this is the end,
this is the end
of the innocence.
O
Just lay your head back on the ground and let your hair fall all around me.
Offer up your best defense
but this is the end
this is the end
of the innocence.
innocence.
