"Innocence" lyrics - ENUFF Z'NUFF
Doll house in the corner
Where you used to sit and play
Cutting paper playmates
Having tea at noon each day
All the things you cherished
Now have faded all away
And you're a big girl now, you say
All familiar faces that you
Used to watch and grow
Now have turned to faces that you
Really do not know
Now some special boy has come
Along and brought you joy
He wants to make love to you
There goes your innocence
Who's to say what's right or wrong?
But it's your innocence
And when you give it up, it's gone
And in your heart, in your mind
If you feel it's the time
Your innocence is gone
All those little shadows
Flickering on your bedroom wall
Once were scary monsters
Now they're all so very small
Dangling on your mizpah
As you hurry down the hall
You want to show all to all
There goes your innocence
Who's to say what's right or wrong?
But it's your innocence
And when you give it up, it's gone
And in your heart, in your mind
If you feel it's the time
Your innocence is gone
Follow intuition
No you ain't done nothing bad
Take a look around you
At your mother and your dad
You're not alone, it happens all the time
You should be glad
That you're a big girl now, so sad
