My Innocence Lyrics by Laura Nyro
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
my innocence, my innocence
comes from my mother
my innocence, my innocence
comes from my warm earth mother
out along the gravestones
the sky is speechless
and my mind
it blows away

my innocence, my innocence
I gave to my lover
to his lips
my innocence, my innocence
I gave to my cold, cold lover
earth under my feet
splits in the sun
the nest blows away
the sweet summer days die young

I look for the man
with the Indian hair
I look for his land
but it isn’t there
in our room tonight
sharing the moon
to fight the pain

my innocence, my innocence
is a wild thing
my innocence, my innocence
unknown future, it’s me and you now
unknown moon floating past her
mother earth, are you hiding in the laughter
of my innocence?
my innocence, my innocence   comes from my mother   my innocence, my innocence   comes from my warm earth mother   out along the gravestones   the sky is speechless   and my mind   it blows away      my innocence, my innocence   I gave to my lover   to his lips   my innocence, my innocence   I gave to my cold, cold lover   earth under my feet   splits in the sun   the nest blows away   the sweet summer days die young      I look for the man   with the Indian hair   I look for his land   but it isn’t there   in our room tonight   sharing the moon   to fight the pain      my innocence, my innocence   is a wild thing   my innocence, my innocence   unknown future, it’s me and you now   unknown moon floating past her   mother earth, are you hiding in the laughter   of my innocence?
