Innocence

Dollhouse in the corner where you used to sit and play

Cutting paper playmates, having tea at noon each day

All the things you cherished now have faded all away

And you're a big girl now, you say

All familiar faces that you used to watch and grow

Now have turned to faces that you really do not know

Oh, some special boy has come along and brought you joy

Who wants to make love to you

There goes your innocence

Who's to say what's right or wrong?

But it's your innocence

And when you give it up, it's gone

And in your heart, in your mind (Heart, in your mind)

You feel it's the time

When your innocence is gone

Oh-oh

Oh-oh

Every little shadow flickerin' on your bedroom wall

Once were scary monsters, now, they're all so very small

Danglin' on your mizpah as you hurry down the hall

You want to show all to all

There goes your innocence

Who's to say what's right or wrong?

But it's your innocence

And when you give it up, it's gone

And in your heart, in your mind (Heart, in your mind)

You feel it's the time

When your innocence is gone

Oh (Ah-ah)

Oh, yeah (Ah-ah-ah, ah)

Follow intuition, no, you ain't done nothin' bad

Take a look around you, at your mother and your dad

You're not alone, it happens all the time

You should be glad that you're a big girl now, so sad

There goes your innocence

Who's to say what's right or wrong?

'Cause it's your innocence

And when you give it up, it's gone

And in your heart, in your mind (Heart, in your mind)

You feel it's the time

Your innocence is gone (Innocence), oh

Oh-oh-oh (Innocence), oh

Oh-oh-oh (Innocence), oh

Oh-oh-oh (Innocence), oh

Oh-oh-oh (Innocence)

Yeah, oh (Innocence)

Ah, yeah (Innocence)

(Oh)
