For Amy (Honest & Raw First Take Version)

I'm never one to let love get away,

And honey you cut your beauty through the day,

When I awoke I saw an innocent child,

And when you spoke I knew that we'd be alright yeah...

As sprightly as my heart I worked my way to you,

Fumbling with a hundred words and opening with two,

And when you spoke I saw an innocent child,

And when I awoke I knew that we'd be alright yeah...

When I left that day my shadow did remain,

Watching over you and keeping you from pain,

And every day I saw an innocent child,

When I returned I knew that we'd be alright yeah...

I could feel the grains running through my hand,

But you cupped your own and helped me understand,

And in my mirror I saw an innocent child,

And you smiled at me and said "we'll be alright"...
