innocens

See the young girl called Innocent Heart all aflutter She’s going to pin her hopes on one dream Gathering water with a sieve Collecting sand in a shoe with no sole Some things can’t be caged Yeah, most things won’t be caged Wild birds Wild game Wild love She picked a wild one And she knows it as she feels her expectations Thrash against the bars One step, two step, three step, four It’s small in here and She imagines what it’s like to soar To get back what she gives Maybe even tenfold Lying at the bottom of the cage Tired and spent He locks her in with no particular key And leaves again The wild is no place for Innocent’s dreams.
