Ode To The Innocent - Diablo Swing Orchestra

As a child

Soft and wild

Imagine what life could be like

Safe and sound

Lost and found

Here, yet not twisted in mind

Like a feather

Like a whisper

Like a promise shouldn’t wither

Away with the last rays of hope

In a longing for belonging

To something more

A million light voices

Now washed up ashore

Searching through the sky

Seek for love that never dies

Dreams and hopes will burn alive

Hide what’s there

Not meant to share

So most of the time

I forgave and forgot

Like a feather

Like a whisper

Like a promise shouldn’t wither

Away with the last rays of hope

In a longing for belonging

To something more

A million light voices

Now washed up ashore

But I can’t find the trust tonight

I can’t sleep with this world outside

Like a feather

Like a whisper

Like a promise shouldn’t wither

Away with the last rays of hope

In a longing for belonging

To something more

A million light voices

Now washed up ashore
