Remember when the days were long And rolled beneath a deep blue sky Didn't have a care in the world With mommy and daddy standing by When "happily ever after" fails And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales The lawyers dwell on small details Since daddy had to fly
But I know a place where we can go That's still untouched by man We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by And the tall grass wave in the wind
You can lay your head back on the ground And let your hair fall all around me Offer up your best defence But this is the end This is the end of the innocence
O' beautiful, for spacious skies But now those skies are threatening They're beating ploughshares into swords For this tired old man that we elected king Armchair warriors often fail And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales The lawyers clean up all details Since daddy had to lie
But I know a place where we can go And wash away this sin We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by And the tall grass wave in the wind
Just lay your head back on the ground And let your hair spill all around me Offer up your best defence But this is the end This is the end of the innocence
Who knows how long this will last Now we've come so far, so fast But, somewhere back there in the dust That same small town in each of us I need to remember this So baby give me just one kiss And let me take a long last look Before we say goodbye
Just lay your head back on the ground And let your hair fall all around me Offer up your best defence But this is the end This is the end of the innocence
