Innocence - Sarah Buxton

It’s the first time that I’ve been here

Since I was here with him

I remember all the wild flowers

Wavin' in the wind

Life was an undiscovered river

I was jumpin' in

Head first

It was sink or swim

Do or die

Sneaking out on summer nights

Stealing wine from my pa

The thrill of not gettin' caught

And now and then

I miss those days

But coming back to this place

I realize, it ain’t him I miss

It’s that young girl, wide eyed,

First love, one time

Innocence

Yeah

We ran off to the cornfield

Just outside the county fair

There were butterflies in my stomach

And fireflies in the air

He tried hard not to show it

Oh, but he was just as scared

As me

And it was sink or swim

Do or die

Sneaking out on summer nights

Stealing wine from my pa

The thrill of not gettin' caught

And now and then

I miss those days

But coming back to this place

I realize, it ain’t him I miss

It’s that young girl, wide eyed,

First love, one time

Innocence

Yeah

And coming here

Has made me come to this

The one thing I can’t get back

Is the one thing I miss

Yeah

And it was breaking rules

Flying blind

What you see through younger eyes

It wasn’t what I thought it was

Man, I swore he was the one

And now and then

I miss those days

But coming back to this place

I realize, it ain’t him I miss

It’s that young girl, wide eyed,

First love, one time

Innocence

Yeah

It’s that young girl, wide eyed,

First love, one time

Innocence

Yeah

It’s that innocence

Mmmm
