Do you remember when our days were long
Rolled beneath the deep blue sky?
Didn't have a care in the world
Mother and daddy standin' by
"Happily ever after" fails
We've been poisoned by these fairy tales
Lawyers dwell on small details
Since daddy had to fly
Oh, and I know a place where we can go
That's still untouched by men
Oh, we could sit and watch the clouds roll by
Tall grass waves in the wind
Oh, you can lay your head back on the ground
Let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
For this is the end
Oh, this is the end, end of the innocence
ย
Oh, beautiful for spacious skies
Now those skies are threatening now
Beating plowshares into swords
For that tired old man that's no longer king
Armchair warriors often fail
We've been poisoned by these fairy tales
Lawyers dwell on small details
Since daddy had to fly
Oh, and I know a place where we can go
And wash away this sin
Or we could sit and watch the clouds roll by
Tall grass waves in the wind
Or you can lay your head back on the ground
Let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
For this is the end
This is the end, end of the innocence
ย
Who knows how long this will last
How we've come so far so fast?
Somewhere back there in the dust
That same small town in each of us
I need to remember this
So baby give me just one kiss
Come and take a long last look
Before we say goodbye, goodbye
Can lay your head back on the ground
Let your hair fall all around
Offer up your best defense
Offer up your best defense
Offer up your best defense
For this is the end
This is the end
This is the end
Of the innocence
