We Continue to Play: Innocence Lost

Its innocence lost
As years slip away
Our dreams are so simple
They slip into day
The world is above us
We sit on the ground
We wait with impatience
For wishes profound

Holiday festives
Come in the morn
With dreams of tomorrow
Our wishes are born
Our innocence lost
As the years slip away
We continue to play

There's secrets around us
A'hidden away
The elders have whispers
Concerning that day
The knowing comes later
For now let us play

Holiday festives
Come in the morn
With dreams of tomorrow
Our wishes are born
Our innocence lost
As the years slip away
We continue to play

Our sleepy eyes open
Its glitter and gold
The rooms are all crowded
The young and the old
We search for our wishes
And find them at last
A thrill of elation
We hope it will last

Holiday festives
Come in the morn
With dreams of tomorrow
Our wishes were born
Our innocence lost
So the years slip away
We continue to play

We continue to play
