Goodbye Innocence lyrics
Song information
Artist: Beverley Knight Album: The B-Funk
Lyrics
Written by beverley knight
Goodbye innocence, you didn't stay too long You were her haven, her solace while she was young But fate decreed that fear would form her personality And she would cry when daylight passed, knowing that the night would bring ...Daddy
Goodbye innocence, you made her happy Goodbye innocence, you saved her from pain But you weren't enough, to break the heavy fall Goodbye Goodbye innocence
Now a woman, her character's 'unclean' Childhood haunts her, she's fighting the things unseen A slave to memory, relived as she sleeps And freedom like the prisoner, whose fate is sealed by hate Is a dream
Chorus
If only she found a reason to trust somebody She would find a friend in me, o yes See, I can't take away the pain, that she endured no, no, no But I try to ease her misery
Chorus
