Innocense

We are going to pretend

We are young again

Act like we did back then

Play the games we played when

We were sweet and innocent

We played around in the dirt

When we met a guy we didn’t flirt

There was no need to feel obliged

To run until our shoes were tied

 

We could never think, over step or try to hard

Because the word did not exist, the word cant

We tried our best to see what was not there

Imagine the dreams and laughter that was here

The flying fairies diving through the wintery dell

Life was a perfect heaven with no threat of hell

 

All our dreams could come true we just had to believe

And at night we closed our eyes and saw the monsters freed

But these were just the bogey men and not the fear of taxes

And bills were non-existent there was just the threat of vampires

We hid below the covers from the storm, with frightened breath

But lighting couldn’t really hurt us and we did not believe in death 

We thought that we could live forever and we never saw the end

We had that special youth and happiness as our lifelong friend
