Remember when the days were long
And rolled beneath the deep blue sky
Didn't have a care in the world
With mommy and daddy standin' by
But 'happily ever after' fails
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers dwell on small details
Since daddy had to fly
But I know a place where we can go
That's still untouched by man
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
And the tall grass wave in the wind
You can lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up the best defense
This is the end
This is the end of the innocence
O' beautiful for spacious skies
But now those skies are threatening
They're beating plowshares into swords
For this tired old man that we elected king
Armchair warriors often fail
And we've been poisoned by these fairy tales
The lawyers clean up all details
Since daddy had to lie
But I know a place where we can go
And wash away this sin
We'll sit and watch the clouds roll by
The tall grass wave in the wind
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair spill all around me
Offer up your best defense
This is the end
This is the end of the innocence
Who knows how long this will last
Now we've come so far so fast
But somewhere back there in the dust
That same small town in each of us
I need to remember this
So baby give me just one kiss
And let me take a long last look
Before we say goodbye
Just lay your head back on the ground
And let your hair fall all around me
Offer up your best defense
This is the end
This is the end of the innocence
~Don Henley
I know the things you wanted,
They're not what you have
I thought you could live in my world, as years all went by.
With all of the voices I've heard, something has died
But when you're in need of someone my heart won't deny you. (Guns 'n Roses)

Nothing lasts forever, and we both kinow hearts can change...but I'll just end up walking in this cold November rain.
