Innocence Lyrics - Singles - Buxton Sarah

It's the first time that I've been here 

Since I was here with him 

I remember all the wild flowers 

Waving in the wind 

Life was an undiscovered river 

I was jumping in 

Head first 

It was sink or swim, do or die 

Sneaking out on summer nights 

Stealing wine from my Pa 

The thrill of not getting caught 

And now and then I miss those days 

But coming back to this place 

I realize it ain't him I miss 

It's that young girl, wide-eyed, first love 

One time innocence 

Yeah 

We ran off to the corn field 

Just outside the county fair 

There were butterflies in my stomach 

And fireflies in the air 

He tried hard not to show it 

Oh, but he was just as scared 

as me 

And it was sink or swim, do or die 

Sneaking out on summer nights 

Stealing wine from my Pa 

The thrill of not getting caught 

And now and then I miss those days 

But coming back to this place 

I realize it ain't him I miss 

It's that young girl, wide-eyed, first love 

One time innocence 

Yeah 

And coming here has made me come to this 

The one thing I can't get back 

Is the one thing I miss 

Yeah 

And it was breaking rules, flying blind 

What you see through younger eyes 

It wasn't what I thought it was 

Man, I swore he was the one 

And now and then I miss those days 

But coming back to this place 

I realize it ain't him I miss 

It's that young girl, wide-eyed, first love 

One time innocence 

Yeah 

It's that young girl, wide-eyed, first love 

One time innocence 

Yeah, it's that innocence 

Mmm, mmm
