Innocence from The Heights by Linda Ronald

Started so innocently
There's no way that you could know
The power in your make believe
And just how far this would go

Somehow through your eyes
They materialised and we could see
You came at the right time
We needed someone, needed to believe

Stories took shape
To the music of water on stone
Caught up in the joy of the game
So deep in its world,
Thoughts came, ideas took hold

Somehow through your eyes
They materialised and we could see
You came at the right time
We needed someone, needed to believe

We needed innocence
We needed innocence
We needed innocence
We needed more

You brought grown men to their knees
In their need to see something beyond
Cynics lay down at your feet
For a moment to dream
- be free from the dark and cold

Somehow through your eyes
They materialised and we could see
You came at the right time
We needed someone, needed to believe

We needed innocence
We needed innocence
We needed innocence
We needed more

We needed innocence
We needed innocence
We needed innocence
Like we had before

How many times did you falter
And swallow your words
'cause the stakes were too high
Did you long to go back to the water
Would you turn back the clock
Would you take back the lie

How many times did you wonder
How things would change
If the truth could be told
Would you dare to go down to the water
If you speak the words
Will the magic grow cold

Somehow through your eyes
They materialised and we could see
You came at the right time
We needed someone, needed to believe

We needed innocence
We needed innocence
We needed innocence
We needed more
