Innocent

We looked good on paper
You were everything, I was everything you want
A girl with a guitar, you were a good boy with a heart
And we fell in love

Thought we'd always be together
One day I thought that I'd be your wife
We'd live happily ever after, but I'm told
That's what everyone thinks their first time

First love don't last that's what they say
But it's pure and it's real the first time that you feel
You give yourself away

So you... go find a girl
Who's kinder and smarter, loves you even harder
I hope she gives you the world
So you... go find the freedom that you want
Your forever might be better in whatever other ways
But it won't be as innocent

The first time that I loved him
I gave my whole heart, I gave him all I could
There was no other reason
Hesitation, reservations weren't things I understood

Now, I'll be looking over my shoulder
The world just got a bit colder
Right now "I love you" and "I'm leaving" sound the same

First love don't last that's what they say
But it's pure and it's real the first time that you feel
You give yourself away

So you... go find a girl
Who's kinder and smarter, loves you even harder
I hope she gives you the world
So you... go find the freedom that you want
Your forever might be better in whatever other ways
But it won't be as innocent

We looked good on paper
You were everything, I was everything you want
But now you're the boy with the guitar, I'm just a girl with a broken heart
And we're out of love

But one day you'll... go find a girl
Who's kinder and smarter, loves you even harder
I know she'll give you the world
So you'll... go find the freedom that you want
Your forever might be better in whatever other ways
But it won't be as innocent, cause I loved you innocent
