Artist/Band: Taylor Swift
Lyrics for Song: Innocent
Lyrics for Album: Speak Now [2010]



I guess you really did it this time

Left yourself in your warpath

Lost your balance on a tightrope

Lost your mind tryin' to get it back



Wasn't it easier in your lunchbox days?

Always a bigger bed to crawl into

Wasn't it beautiful when you believed in everything?

And everybody believed in you?



It's all right, just wait and see

Your string of lights is still bright to me

Oh, who you are is not where you've been

You're still an innocent

You're still an innocent



Did some things you can't speak of

But tonight you'll live it all again

You wouldn't be shattered on the floor now

If only you had seen what you know now then



Wasn't it easier in your firefly-catchin' days?

And everything out of reach, someone bigger brought down to you

Wasn't it beautiful runnin' wild 'til you fell asleep?

Before the monsters caught up to you?



It's all right, just wait and see

Your string of lights is still bright to me

Oh, who you are is not where you've been

You're still an innocent



It's okay, life is a tough crowd

32, and still growin' up now

Who you are is not what you did

You're still an innocent



Time turns flames to embers

You'll have new Septembers

Every one of us has messed up too



Lives change like a weather

I hope you remember

Today is never too late to

Be brand new



It's all right, just wait and see

Your string of lights are still bright to me

Oh, who you are is not where you've been

You're still an innocent



It's okay, life is a tough crowd

32, and still growin' up now

Who you are is not what you did

You're still an innocent

You're still an innocent



Lost your balance on a tightrope

It's never too late to get it back
