[00:00:15] It's such a clever innocence with which you do your sorcery as if somehow the issue bow let that little girl I thought I was a child Till you turned and smiled I thought I knew where I was going Until I heard your laughter flowing and came upon the wisdom in your eyes Spend my whole life running around Chasing songs from town to town Thinking I'd be free so long as I never let love slow me down so lonely and so wild a time Till you turned and smiled by now I should have long been gone but here I am still looking on as if I didn't know which way to run Such a clever innocence with which you show myself to me as if you knew just how it felt to never be who you wanted to be I thought I was a child until you came and smiled I thought that I was free But I'm just one more prisoner in time alone within the boundaries of my mind I thought I was a child.
