| FREEDOM FROM INNOCENCE (August 1, 1993) I remember lying In alfalfa fields with you Underneath the stars And staring at the lights Bugs buzzed all around us But we didn't seem to care And I kissed your naked Body in the night Eighteen seems so long ago I can't recall the words I said to you with all My heart and mind I've sat alone in darkness On many single days Wondering if anything Would come to light Holding to my inhibitions Not wanting to fall I can't keep it hidden All inside you know (Chorus) When I waked across That stage I knew Freedom from innocence When you took me in Your body I knew Freedom from innocence When they laid her In the cold ground Freedom from innocence And I let the spirit take me And I don't want to go Through all that reconstruction Of the past again Sit down with nostalgic tears And wonder just where The hell I've been I remember meteors Falling in my life And I took the chance To change what I could All those hours of feeling Like I never knew the how And why of life sitting On the shore Surrounded by a hundred Familiar strangers who Reach out their hands In quiet disbelief How did we get this far We'll never never know And I wish you all the best Years of your life (to chorus) Freedom from Innocence | |
