Innocent Eyes Songtext
von Roachford

A young man looks back over the years
He remembers the good times, he remembers the tears
And so all the way in his younger days
Now he understands why his father would say

Look at those innocent eyes
Look at those innocent eyes
I hope they will survive through the test of life

A young man looks back over the years
And he remembers the good times, he remembers the tears, yeah
So all the way in his younger days
Now he understands why his father would say

Look at those innocent eyes
Look at those innocent eyes
I hope they will survive through the test of life

A young mother battles through this test of life
She used to be naive, but now she′s a fading prize
'Cause the man she used to love is left with somebody else
She looks down at her baby, Lord, and cries to herself


Look at those innocent eyes
She said, look at those innocent eyes
I hope they will survive through the test of life

You know, every day we gotta fight another fight
And that′s the way it is, but don't you ask me why
You gotta be strong, yeah, stronger than yesterday
You gotta be smart, oh, if you don't wanna lose your way
You gotta be kind, or happiness you just won′t find
Uncle Bill, please give me time

Look at, look at them, oh
It′s happening to you like it happened to me
Wave goodbye to innocence, hello insanity
Look at those innocent eyes
She said, look at those innocent eyes
I hope they will survive through the test of life

Oh, I wanna say, look at those innocent eyes, yeah
Look at those innocent eyes
I hope they will survive through the test of life
Oh, come on, people
Look at those innocent eyes
Come on now, come on now, come on now, come on now
Look at them, I will survive through the test of life
