The End Of The Innocence |
| [00:21.50][00:13.50] |
|
| [00:24.50] |
Remember when the days were long |
| [00:27.50] |
And rolled beneath a deep blue sky |
| [00:33.50] |
Didn't have a care in the world |
| [00:36.50] |
With mommy and daddy standin' by |
| [00:40.50] |
But "happily ever after" fails |
| [00:44.50] |
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales |
| [00:49.50] |
The lawyers dwell on small details |
| [00:52.50] |
Since daddy had to fly |
| [00:56.50] |
|
| [00:57.50] |
Oh I know a place where we can go |
| [01:01.50] |
That's still untouched by men |
| [01:05.50] |
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by |
| [01:09.50] |
And the tall grass waves in the wind |
| [01:13.50] |
You can lay your head back on the ground |
| [01:18.50] |
And let your hair fall all around me |
| [01:22.50] |
Offer up your best defense |
| [01:26.50] |
this is the end |
| [01:30.50] |
This is the end of the innocence |
| [01:43.50][01:35.50] |
|
| [01:46.50] |
O' beautiful, for spacious skies |
| [01:51.50] |
But now those skies are threatening |
| [01:54.50] |
They're beating plowshares into swords |
| [01:58.50] |
For this tired old man that we elected king |
| [02:02.50] |
|
| [02:03.50] |
Armchair warriors often fail |
| [02:06.50] |
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales |
| [02:11.50] |
The lawyers clean up all details |
| [02:14.50] |
Since daddy had to lie |
| [02:18.50] |
|
| [02:19.50] |
Oh I know a place where we can go |
| [02:24.50] |
And wash away this sin |
| [02:28.50] |
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by |
| [02:31.50] |
And the tall grass waves in the wind |
| [02:35.50] |
Just lay your head back on the ground |
| [02:39.50] |
And let your hair spill all around me |
| [02:44.50] |
Offer up your best defense |
| [02:48.50] |
But this is the end |
| [02:52.50] |
This is the end of the innocence |
| [03:21.50][03:15.50][03:07.50][03:00.50] |
|
| [03:29.50] |
Who knows how long this will last |
| [03:33.50] |
Now we've come so far, so fast |
| [03:38.50] |
But, somewhere back there in the dust |
| [03:41.50] |
That same small town in each of us |
| [03:46.50] |
I need to remember this |
| [03:50.50] |
So baby give me just one kiss |
| [03:54.50] |
And let me take a long last look |
| [03:58.50] |
Before we say goodbye |
| [04:01.50] |
|
| [04:02.50] |
Just lay your head back on the ground |
| [04:06.50] |
And let your hair fall all around me |
| [04:10.50] |
Offer up your best defense |
| [04:14.50] |
But this is the end |
| [04:18.50] |
This is the end of the innocence |
| [04:46.50][04:35.50][04:26.50] |
|
