Wide-eyed and rosy-cheeked
She laid back on the clean white sheets
She was only fifteen
She didn't know what this could mean
She took a leap of faith and she didn't know
What lay ahead on her long road
Yeah she didn't know
That she'd wind up all alone
She sat quietly by the bed
Listening to the voices in her head
Remembering what they said
We thought you had more sense than that
[Chorus]
When innocence is lost
And no one is around
Don't give up so fast
Don't let them bring you down
Because you're better than that
And you know you will survive
Just look them in the face
And tell them no lies
Because when innocence is lost
You are stronger than that
She thinks back to that summer night
How the boy ran off in the evening light
He didn't wanna fight
She thought that he was right
Her whole life to the town was bared
And no one even seemed aware
That she was so scared
It seemed that no one even cared
{Chorus}
But the boy came back to apologize
And she looked straight in to his deep brown eyes
And she couldn't lie
She saw in him what she'd seen that night
{Chorus} X 2
