Innocent Child Songtext
von Seth Lakeman

Drop of eternities, mighty sea,
A blossom on lifes immortal tree,
Floating, flowering evermore,
The shimmering light of the golden shore.

Well innocent child what shall you be,
Keep nothing hidden, nothing from me,
Here a sparkling crystal streams
Hard is the truth, then arise the dreams.

Ashamed to live, afraid to die,
No home nor friend in a hollow sky,
Mercy father when it all goes wild,
Keep from harm my innocent, innocent, innocent, innocent child,
My innocent child.


Roaming eyes and prattling tongue,
Sound moves swift with a heart that′s young,
Like a liquid strain of a mocking bird,
At the stairs to the home your voice is heard.

Ashamed to live, afraid to die,
No home nor friend in a hollow sky,
Mercy father when it all goes wild,
Keep from harm my innocent, innocent, innocent, innocent child,
My innocent child, innocent child, my innocent child, innocent child.

Well deep in the garden you were found,
With flowers curling, bowing down,
As I gaze upon your sinless bloom,
Your radiant face dispells my gloom.

Ashamed to live, afraid to die,
No home nor friend in a hollow sky,
Mercy father when it all goes wild,
Keep from harm my innocent, innocent, innocent, innocent child,
My innocent child, my innocent child, my innocent child, my innocent child, my innocent child, my innocent child, my innocent child, my innocent child.
