The Innocent Lyrics

We used to fit together, she was so open
Let me in deep, fed my hope and
The years flew by now we’re older and broken
What did I do to make this bright light go dim

My, my, how things change
Bitter is the fruit of the love we made
Good god, what did I say
To make you repeat my mistakes this way

I’ve never prayed, you owe me nothing
But if it’s judgment day leave her and take me
She’s the innocent, I’m the one you’re wanting
If it’s judgment day leave her and take me

You used to sleep on my chest, your body so warm
The top of your head still smelled like a newborn
You were salvation, I thought you could atone for me
But I’m just the same and you’ve sins of your own, I see

My, my, how we grow
Crooked as the seed that our fathers sow

I’ve never prayed, you owe me nothing
But if it’s judgment day leave her and take me
She’s the innocent, I’m the one you’re wanting
If it’s judgment day leave her and take me

Good god, it’s the family disease
We’re bent as the branch on the cottonwood tree

I’ve never prayed, you owe me nothing
But if it’s judgment day leave her and take me
She’s the innocent, I’m the one you’re wanting
If it’s judgment day leave her and take me
Leave her and take me
