White Innocence

                                        She drifted from some minor festival ha   Didn’t look like any Summer of love   Just a thousand weekend worriors   in a muddy field   It was the hand to fit my glove   Funny thing the innocence of the lonely   Funny thing the charm of the young   She how she moves just like two angels white innocence   Yea one of them is on the run   The other’s tapping at my car window   Mum and I’m squinting through the sun   Trying to see if she’s some child of the nineties   Or just another dangerous fantasy of mine yea    White innocence white innocence   White innocence she was white innocence                                            A perfect whole was in her stocking   It made a perfect window to the heart   It could have moved among the waterfalls   A mist of curtains drawn apart   Did you say you want saftey in my numbers   Go on and hitch a ride this way   Felt like I was taking her market now   To be sold as the last luck of the day   Funny thing the distance of the lonely   Funny thing the charm of the young white innocence   White innocence white innocence   White innocence white innocence        White innocence white innocence   White innocence   white    white innocence   She pressed the button lowered the window   Let her hand trailing the slipstream of the night   A frost from nowhere seemed to lick her fingers   I could of warmed them but the moment wasn’t right                                                     Obvious she was headed nowhere special yea   Well it was even obvious to me   I was doing some some watching some waiting   She’d been here before most definitely   It was the promise of early bedtime hum   It was the promise of heaven on earth   Think I was sending out local to GE electricity   Played it right down for what it was worth   She turn and looked at me in white innocence   And with the clearest eyes of forever gray   She rested one small hand for a second on my knee   stopped the car she walked away mum   Funny thing the wisdom of the lonely   Funny thing the charm of the young   Away you go now White innocence white innocence   White innocence white innocence        White innocence white innocence   White innocence   white    white innocence   White innocence
